BUCKS COUNTY, Penn. — A dead body on a
stretcher flew out of a coroner’s van and into
traffic after a malfunction in the van’s door.
The Bucks County Courier Times reported
that it happened Friday near a shopping
center in Feasterville, Pa.
The Coroner’s Office said the driver of the
van returned to get the corpse “in a manner
of seconds.”
“Care was taken to respect the deceased
individual in this instance. The Bucks County
Coroner’s Office deeply regrets this incident
and will take steps to ensure that it is not
repeated in the future,” the Bucks County
Coroner’s Office said in a prepared
statement.
Many cars were reportedly driving around the
stretcher, but Bucks County resident Jerry
Bradley stopped to help get the body back to
the driver.
“I thought someone was playing a prank.
Someone is pranking people,” Bradley said,
according to the paper. “It was the most
bizarre thing I’d ever seen.”
Bradley took a picture of the stretcher in
traffic and posted it to Facebook, where it
got more than 2,000 shares.
