Wayne Township crews responded to a call Wednesday afternoon on the west side of Indianapolis of a man whose legs were trapped under his car's suspension system, the department said in a post on social media. The man had been working on the car's brakes when the suspension fell.

Firefighters used a hydraulic spreader to lift the car and pull out the man, who only suffered minor injuries in the incident, according to the department.
