A Denton County man was accidentally killed when his pickup rolled on top of him Saturday at his home in the 10000 block of Dyer Road, west of Sanger.

According to a sheriff's report, Bret Burleson, 50, was working under the truck without a jack but was using an incline to make space to work.

The report stated that his wife found him face-down under the truck not breathing.

He was declared dead at the scene at about 5:30 p.m.
