 The body, which was covered and stayed strapped to the gurney,
came to rest at an intersection in Feasterville. Cars drove around
the gurney before it was placed back inside the coroner's vehicle
and driven off, the Bucks County Courier Times said.
"Care was taken to respect the deceased individual in this instance.
The Bucks County Coroner’s Office deeply regrets this incident and
will take steps to ensure that it is not repeated in the future,"
the office said in a statement, the paper reported.
The office believes a broken rear door latch may have been behind
the incident on Friday.
The coroner's office was not immediately available for comment.
