Allwntown, PA : Car crashes, flips on South Jefferson Street in Allentown on Friday morning, April 15, 2016

An out-of-control car on Friday morning sheared off a fire hydrant, tore up a small tree and then flipped over after crashing into a car parked in a driveway, Allentown police and witnesses said.

Assistant Chief Gail Struss said she believed the driver, who is in his 70s, may have suffered from a medical issue just before the crash.

The man's car was southbound when he hit a fire hydrant, went over a sidewalk and through a yard, hit a tree trunk and crashed into the car, Struss said. She said the man did not suffer serious injuries.

The accident happened at 10:47 a.m. Friday in the 1400 block of South Jefferson Street. The driver was talking and moving his extremities after he was freed from the silver sedan, according to witness Pat Hodge.
