When employees at Manheim Auto Auction yard in Lancaster County opened the trunk of the Dodge Challenger Hellcat to photograph it, they were startled to find a man inside, who was barely moving, according to The Associated Press.

"Somehow this guy got in the trunk of the car," Northern Lancaster County Regional police Chief David Steffen told Penn Live.

The man was transported to an area hospital where he was later identified as Leon Parks, the AP reported. Parks, 25, is wanted in New York on a parole violation and weapons charges.

Parks was released from the hospital and taken to jail where he’s awaiting extradition.
