MANHEIM, PA (AP) -- A New York man who became pinned beneath pick-up truck at a central Pennsylvania auto auction has died.
Lancaster County Coroner Dr. Stephen Diamantoni says 57-year-old Jeff Rotella, of Syracuse, was pronounced dead at a hospital on Saturday.
The Intelligencer Journal/Lancaster New Era reports Rotella became trapped on Friday while loading vehicles onto a car carrier at the Manheim Auto Auction. A pick-up truck fell on him, pinning him underneath.
