Posted

A maintenance working is recovering after losing his foot in an accident at a mid-Michigan race track.

Pete Badgero was driving a tractor Friday night at Tri-city Motor Speedway in Bay County's Williams Township.

He was driving along the track after it rained when the tractor collided with a truck causing him to fall and get caught in his tractor.

Witnesses say his leg was caught underneath a roto-tiller.

He's currently in the hospital where he's expected to undergo a couple of surgeries.
