CBS2 and KCAL9 reporter Greg Mills tweeted out video footage of the skid marks where the car left the road:
Black and a third passenger, Rebecca Broxterman, were trapped under the collapsed roof of the car; Hart was able to get free and went to his nearby house to get help.
According to the California Highway Patrol, Hart and Black were taken to separate hospitals; Broxterman was not as seriously injured and sought treatment on her own. Police say Black had not been drinking at the time of the accident.
Hart bought the car, a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda, as a 40th birthday present to himself earlier this summer:
According to TMZ, Hart and Black both suffered “major back injuries”; the comedian’s team has not yet commented on the incident.
