WATCH: Two Year-Old Runs Over Referee With Golf Cart In Lackluster Display Of Vehicle Control

A high school football referee in Oregon has filed a lawsuit against the Springfield school district after he was run over by a little kid in a golf cart.

In October 2008, Kenneth Brooks was chatting with referees and setting up before a game, when surveillance video shows the cart accelerate off the sideline and make a beeline for Brooks. It’s actually kind of scary, as the cart literally hurtles him in the air before running him over.

Brooks says he suffered “permanent injuries” ( a disc hernation, concussion, occipital contusion and abrasion, cervical strain, lumbar strain and a calf abrasion, according the lawsuit) and is looking for $264,722.51 in damages from the school district. The boy’s mom is named in the lawsuit as well.
