[May 14, 2008]  INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Charles Buckman, a crewman for Dale Coyne Racing, has been released from Methodist Hospital four days after being struck by Danica Patrick's race car during practice for the Indianapolis 500.

Buckman was hit in the left leg by the left front tire of Patrick's car as she drove into the pits during practice on Friday. He went airborne and then fell to the ground, suffering a concussion and cuts to his scalp and face.

He was released from intensive care Saturday but was kept at the hospital for observation until his release Tuesday.
