A Pennsylvania trucker may have saved his own life with an unintentional and elaborate Heimlich maneuver. Police say 55-year-old Richard Paylor was eating an apple as he drove on a busy highway in Reading when he began choking Tuesday morning. Paylor lost consciousness and crashed through a concrete median. Investigators believe the apple was dislodged when Paylor smacked his chest against the steering wheel. Police recovered a chunk of apple from the dashboard. Doctors backed up the conclusion that the accident dislodged the offending fruit.
