Car flips over and crashes into parked vehicles in quiet Bedminster street

A car flipped onto its side as it crashed in two parked vehicles in a quiet Bristol street last night. Firefighters said they called to reports of a fuel spillage in Bedminster but on route discovered there had also been a three-vehicle collision.

Photos from the scene show a car turned over against two parked cars on Eldon Terrace. Avon and Somerset Police attended the incident and cordoned off the road while fire crews worked towards making the vehicles safe.

A local resident contacted BristolLive on Sunday at around 9pm and reported: "No one really knows how it happened other than that the driver likely clipped a parked car then caught another car on and drove up the side of it somehow.

They added: "A cordon was put in place and crews worked towards making the vehicles safe using ratchet straps and a winch."
