Just to be clear..
Saw screw in tire when leaving grocery store, drove 5-10 minutes home with it in the tire.
Once home, removed screw from tread block. No air came rushing out, nothing. Measured depth of tread block at puncture site, 8 or 9/32" (6-7mm). Measured length of screw shaft, 11 or 12mm. Screw seemed to go in tread block at an angle.
Placed screw on top of tire in between tread blocks before taking pictures in my original post. I wanted to show how tall the screw was next to a tread block, to show how much screw material could have gone below the tread block, if it had gone straight down, which I don't believe it did.
So the screw has been removed for more than a day now. I didn't want to remove it when I first saw it at the grocery store, I figured I could make it home 5-10 minutes no problem. Worst case I'd have to put air in it on my way home with the air pump I keep in my trunk.
