April 26, 2018

A group of witnesses combined forces to lift a car off a trapped pedestrian following a horrifying crash in the US.

A female pedestrian ended up under the car when it drove across a footpath in Washington DC after being sideswiped by a truck on Tuesday, St Louis Today reported.

Three other pedestrians were injured in the accident.

Dashcam footage shows the car skid across the footpath and slam into a pole.

As occupants get out of the car and a woman is heard screaming, about 20 passersby run to the scene.

They surround the car and lift it, allowing the trapped woman to get out from underneath.

The four pedestrians were taken to hospital with injuries that were described as non-life threatening.
