A couple is safe after they rolled their car on a Northeast Portland street Monday evening, nicking a parked vehicle and tearing the roof of their own car.

We thank @PDXFire for assisting us with a non-injury, roll over crash. Traffic is still affected near NE Killingsworth and NE 25 Ave for another 15 minutes. Seat belts prevented injury to the two occupants. pic.twitter.com/hxsnjADpR8 — Portland Police (@PortlandPolice) December 31, 2019

The crash blocked Northeast Killingsworth and Northeast 25th Avenue for a short time while crews cleaned up.

Portland Police Sgt. Brad Yakots said the occupants of the car were not injured. He said they were wearing seatbelts, which prevented them from getting injured. Photos from the crash show that the car came to rest on the driver’s side, with the roof and rear bumper of the car completely peeled off, exposing the entire interior.

Yakots said the driver and passenger are an older couple, and that the driver’s age contributed to the crash. He said the driver clipped a parked vehicle and “physics and gravity did the rest.” He said the driver did not receive a criminal citation for the crash.
