Michigan State Police say the 2007 Ford Ranger pickup truck was hit by the pumpkins early Friday on M-14 in Wayne County's Plymouth Township. Two of the pumpkins struck the front of the pickup and the third went through the windshield.
Police say the driver, a 50-year-old man from Pinckney, is hospitalized in stable condition.
