PERRINTON, Mich. (AP) — A 10-year-old boy died after he fell off a farm tractor in central Michigan, police said.
The incident happened in Fulton Township, the Gratiot County sheriff’s office said.
“A 10-year-old male had been riding on the fender of a farm tractor when it hit a bump and he fell from the fender and was subsequently run over by the tractor and the implement it was pulling,” the sheriff’s office said.
