One person was rushed to the hospital after a car flipped over and crashed into two parked cars in Williamsburg.

Video showed a silver car sitting on its roof as an FDNY firefighter opened the trunk door.

The crash happened shortly after 9:30 a.m. on Monday on Meeker Avenue between North 7th and 8th streets.

As of Monday evening, the injured person’s condition was unknown.

One witness, who asked to remain anonymous, told News 12 that he worked nearby, heard the crash, and ran to the scene. He said another witness tried to help the driver.

“He opened the door and he asked the driver, ‘Are you OK?’ said the witness. “And [the driver] said, ‘What happened?’ [The other witness] said, ‘You had an accident.”

It was now immediately clear what led to the crash or if the driver faced any charges.
