MIDLAND -- A tractor-trailer runs over a man in a Midland field.

    Midland Police say that Donald Lee Gregory was sleeping in a weed patch in a vacant field in the 1900 block of North Loop 250 West (between Corley Paper and Tracker Boats) when a when a blue truck tractor -- which was possibly pulling a sand hauler belly-dump style trailer -- ran over him around 8:45 AM on Wednesday.

    Gregory reportedly woke up in great pain.

    The truck and trailer reportedly drove off toward Loop 250 after the incident.

    Gregory lay in the field for several more hours until a passerby saw him and called 911.

    Gregory was then rushed to Midland Memorial Hospital with serious injuries.

    Police believe that the driver of the truck tractor might not have realized that they ran over Gregory.

    Anyone who knows where the driver or truck might be should call Midland Police at (432) 685-7108.
