Stopped on roadway to pick up a part that had fallen out of the truck traveling in front of me. I put my 1998 chevy Suburban in park and popped the rear hatch. I remember hearing the rear hatch click and now realize that the hatch won't release unless the truck is in park. I walked behind my truck to pick up the part. After I picked it up, I was knocked down by the force of my truck. The truck must have slipped out of gear after I'd put it in park. I recently read about a similar incident in the local newspaper, where this happened to someone else with this type of vehicle. The truck rolled over me, and I was trapped under it. A man came and drove the truck off me. I suffered a deep cut to the back of my head, the meat was ripped off my leg, I shattered the t-12 vertebra in my back and the disks above and below were compressed.
