A man has serious injuries after his vehicle rolled over and landed on his legs in Meriden on Friday morning.
Police said the 35-year-old Meriden man was driving a 2013 Lexus GS350 on Old Colony Road at a high rate of speed when he went off the road around 12:58 a.m., crossed several front yards, hit a fire hydrant and flipped the car over several times.
The driver was thrown from the car and the vehicle rolled on top of his legs, trapping him under it.
The car stopped behind a six-foot construction fence, making it difficult for emergency crews to get to him, police said.
