A drunk driver flipped his car at the intersection of Court Street and Huntington Street late Tuesday night, according to an onlooker.
Police responded to a call that there was a DWI off the Court Street thoroughfare on Tuesday night, a witness said. Upon arrival at the scene, they tended to a man who had seemingly flipped his own car, the witness told Patch.
"I heard [the crash] then looked out the window," said Carroll Gardens resident Jeff Anzulewicz, who ran down from his apartment to help. "A guy crawled out then said 'What happened?' very, very drunk."
According to Anzulewicz, after revewing the driver for any visible injuries police then cuffed him and escorted him to a nearby ambulance.
"Pretty insane and surreal," said Anzulewicz. "Looked like the guy took the turn too wide and fast."
Officers of the 76th Precinct did not respond on Wednesday to inquiries regarding the accident. Stay with Patch for updates.
