8/2/14 - A dump truck rolled down a hill in Pinckney Friday before colliding with a nearby house. Officers from the Pinckney Police Department were dispatched to the scene at about 9:40 Friday morning. They determined the truck had backed up to a residence and dumped a load of landscaping boulders. The driver, a 35-year-old Pinckney man, got out of the vehicle, which then rolled downhill with nobody inside it. The truck crashed into the porch of the house across the street, causing some minor damage. No injuries were reported.
