The accident involved a black SUV and a white sedan, as the SUV looked to have struck the car while traveling at a high rate of speed, ending up on its side, according to a witness at the scene.
“That wreck was so scary,” said Rachel McCoy, who saw the accident. “We were sitting at the light on the corner of NW Washington and Brookwood, facing eastbound, and the black Chevy SUV came down eastbound NW Washington in the left-hand lane facing oncoming traffic. He was speeding and he ran the the red light and hit the white car’s front passenger side.”
She added that, upon impact, the SUV’s front tire came off and the vehicle flipped onto its side. “Bystanders immediately tried to bust out the window of the SUV to try and help the driver but he was unresponsive,” McCoy said.
Police said the accident is still under investigation, and officers did not release the name of the injured driver of either car or their condition.
