I agree with LoneWolf on this. The guy was an idiot and deserved to get a trip downtown and a fine. However, the cop overreacted. This shouldn't be a felony charge, and the fact that the cop is off work and suing the guy makes me suspect that the cop is kind of a deadbeat. The guy truly was an idiot to not take his ticket, though.
I've had my foot run over in a similar situation, and while you panic a little when it gets trapped, I just chuckled once the wheel was back off. Tires are soft. Other than a few seconds of fear it never even really hurt.
