Well like with all animals you should handle them with extreme caution. It would have been nice for you to do such a nice thing but you would have put yourself in risk. it could have diseases or could have bit or attacked you if it though it was necissary. Even though I have never heard of someone being attacked by one.. Better safe than sorry!
So personally you could have it was your desicion.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!, they bite and it is very nasty. It will find a way to flip it’s self, they do it all the time. They carry rabies, and all sorts of disease. I now its had sometimes, but nature as its ways of taking care of things.

Grab its tail and move it. It was seriously injured or it would have flipped itself with ease.
They don’t bite. They have small dull grinding teeth. It might kick you with its back claws. Dull but still a very powerful kicker.
They do carry leprosy. I have never heard of anyone catching it from oe but if your immunee systme is compromised I woudl stay clear.
