Looking for a word meaning “run over by a wheel”
Looking for a word meaning "run over by a wheel".
My first though was something like:
... as the body is trampled by the wagon wheels ...
but in my mind, trample is really something under foot, people walking over, not run over by wheels.
My mind is nagging me for a simple word the seems just beyond my grasp, so I thought I'd reach out for any ideas.
Thoughts?
