A Corbin man who attempted to retrieve money that blew out of his hand Wednesday while he was at the So-P-J Car Wash located along U.S. 25 West lost control of his car which then knocked over a gas pump at the adjacent Marathon gas station, according to the Laurel County Sheriff’s Department. The driver, Charles Jody, had his foot on his car’s brake as he tried to insert money into the car wash’s control. When he attempted to retrieve his money after it blew away, his foot slipped off the brake and he fell out of the car. Police said the gas pump automatically shut off when Jody’s car collided with it. Jody, who police said suffered cuts and abrasions, was taken to Baptist Regional Medical Center for treatment.
