Tire wrench

Wife came home last night and asked me to look at her front tire, had some metal in it. 

So went out last night and found this. No not a 10mm wrench either, it'a 5/16. Only good thing was the opened end of wrench was already broke off.

took it in to work today and pulled it off to see if it was fixable. All good.

As amazing as it is that a wrench went through a tire, it's even more amazing that the tire was repairable!

Must have been broke prior to the wife getting in tire, wasn't me driving, LOL.
Open end of wrench was not inside the tire. The was only 1/2 mile from home, but was leaking when she pulled in,
she thought there was a rock in tire till she got out and seen it, yes it was leaking when she got it into the garage.
Another wall ornament.
