Beer saves man from attack by milk.

A MILKMAN was run over by his delivery van after it was stolen by a hijacker.

The thief jumped into the driving seat while Andrew Creed, 43, was dropping off pintas.

Dad-of-two Andrew gave chase and held on to an open window. But he was thrown under the 2.5-ton Ford Transit as the hijacker zig-zagged across the road to shake him free.

The milko, of Wakefield, West Yorks, suffered two broken fingers, cuts to his head — and tyre marks on his legs and stomach.

He joked: “I reckon my beer belly saved me from being hurt a lot worse.”

I have absolutely no interest in this story. I just wanted to write that headline. I might need therapy.
