STAFFORD TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) - Snow sliding off a car’s roof caused an accident that left a woman pinned under a car in a southern New Jersey hospital parking lot.
Stafford Township police say a 59-year-old woman was driving out of the parking lot Friday night when the snow slid down onto her car’s windshield and blocked her vision.
The woman tried to drive into a parking spot, but she did not see a 66-year-old woman who was walking nearby. The car hit the pedestrian, who became trapped underneath the vehicle.
The pedestrian was freed a short time later and flown to a trauma center. But further details on her condition were not available Sunday.
No charges have been filed so far, but the accident remains under investigation.
