A man flipped his car and was trapped inside after crashing into a parked car on Roslyn’s Main Street Wednesday morning. He sustained minor injuries, according to police.
Police said there was no criminality involved in the incident and no other individuals were injured. The parked car was vacant at the time of the collision.
Nassau County police reported that the man was driving a late model Jeep Cherokee on the northbound Main Street near Papermill Road when he struck the parked car around 7 a.m. Wednesday. The Jeep then flipped into the southbound lane.
Nassau County Emergency Services and the Roslyn Fire Department rescued the man from the Jeep using the jaws of life, a hydraulic rescue tool used to extract individuals trapped in small spaces like a car.
The driver was taken to a local hospital and treated for his minor injuries, according to police.
