A Beechview man returned home Saturday saying he had spent two days in his car after getting lost near a stone quarry in Collier Township.
On Thursday, Rudolph Golling, 79, drove his white Hyundai Elantra to the military commissary at the U.S. Army's Charles E. Kelly Support Facility in Oakdale. On his way home, Golling apparently made a wrong turn and drove about four miles on a dirt path into the woods. Golling said he slept in his car, honked the car horn for help and ate chocolate pudding. He went to look for help yesterday morning.
Golling, who has health problems, said he was found by a man on an all-terrain vehicle who took him to an office at the Collier Stone Co., 80 Noblestown Road, where he called his wife, Shirley. Collier Township police and paramedics found Golling there at 10:37 a.m. A county dispatcher said Golling and his family refused transport to a hospital.
Lucky fella...
