The accident happened on January 22nd at approximately 1:00 a.m. on the Upper West Side in New York City.
According to New York Daily News, the man was joggling uptown along Amsterdam Avenue when he suddenly sprinted east across the road, running right into the side of the moving big rig before sliding underneath the trailer and getting caught beneath the rear wheels.
The man was then transported to a nearby hospital with serious injuries to his legs and upper body.
Police say the unidentified truck driver attempted to stop to avoid the man, but was unable to slow the tractor trailer in time. He remained on the scene during the investigation and no one has been charged in the incident.
