A driver was run over by her car when she tried to stop it rolling down a steep hill with her pet dog inside.
Mary Andrews, 56, left her miniature Dachshund, Elvis, two, in her Audi when she parked. But her handbrake failed and the car began to roll down a road.
Horrified Mary jumped in front of the vehicle and was almost killed. She said: “It was instinct. I thought the car would kill people and I would lose Elvis.”
