A parking enforcement officer’s foot was run over Thursday by a driver whose car was in the process of being towed from Lot 72, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said. The 20-year-old female parking enforcer was in the process of towing a 21-year-old male student’s car when the vehicle owner returned to his car, got into the driver’s seat and put the vehicle in reverse, McGlothian-Taylor said. The car ran over the parking enforcer’s foot and hit her in the shin. The parking enforcer took herself to Olin Health Center, McGlothian-Taylor said. No medical report was available.
