An 81-year-old woman has been “rescued” from a car after an accident in a Fife village.
The incident happened on Colinsburgh Main Street at around 12.30pm on Monday.
Firefighters and paramedics were both called to the scene and the woman was taken to hospital.
One onlooker told The Courier: “Unusually for Colinsburgh, it was a slow speed accident and happened when she caught a parked car in the village.
“She caught the offside front wheel of the parked car, which her car basically drove up and rolled onto the side.”
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: “We were alerted at 12.30pm on Monday to reports of a vehicle on its side on Main Street in Colinsburgh.
“Operations Control mobilised three appliances to the scene to support our emergency service partners.
“One casualty was transported to hospital by the Scottish Ambulance Service.
“Crews left the scene after ensuring the area was made safe.”
