WOODBURY — A woman is in serious condition after she became pinned under a sport utility vehicle at a Woodbury gas station.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press reports that officials still don’t know how the 46-year-old woman ended up with the vehicle resting on her abdomen Monday afternoon.

Woodbury Public Safety spokeswoman Michelle Okada says it appeared the woman drove the vehicle forward while pumping gas. The fuel line at the Kwik Trip was severed.
