    Auto Repossessions Can Be Dangerous



    ANDERSON COUNTY — So far, an arrest has not been made when a man attempting a repossession got caught in the door of a pickup truck, and the driver refused to stop.
    Johnny Lewis, 60, told Anderson County Sheriff’s deputies that he was not injured in the incident, which was reported at 9 p.m. Monday at 413 Harper Road in Pendleton.
    Lewis said he confronted the driver of a 2002 Ford F-150 near a fence at the property’s edge. When the driver attempted to drive away, Lewis reached for the ignition and turned the switch. The pickup truck rolled forward, trapping Lewis in the driver’s door.
    Lewis “finally got loose from the door when (the 32-year-old driver) made a left turn, and the truck” knocked Lewis to the ground, Deputy L. E. Meador said in the report.
