Wife Runs Over Husband Sleeping In Driveway

Man Says He'd Been Drinking Alcohol

POSTED: 8:44 am EDT August 24, 2006

ROGERS, Ark. -- An Arkansas man who fell asleep in his driveway woke up when his wife came home and turned into the driveway to park the car and ran over him.

Kristine Bolson told the Benton County Sheriff's Office that she drove into her driveway shortly after midnight Tuesday and heard a loud cracking sound. She said that when she got out of her vehicle, she heard moaning and found her husband, Richard Gonzalez, on the ground near her vehicle. Bolson said she did not initially see her husband in the driveway.

A sheriff's reports said Gonzales told them he had been drinking and he must have passed out. He was treated at a hospital for scratches and bruises.

I remember a comedian saying one time that "no one is totally useless. Some people are at least good enough to be a speed bump."

That is all the damage after being run over by a vehicle?
