Police were called to residential streets this morning after a car flipped onto its side.

People needed to be pulled from a black car in Saunders Street, Gillingham, after the one-vehicle crash at around 8am.

One woman said her 11-year-old daughter saw a collision and a van driver rushed to the car to help.

“My daughter called me as she walked past,” she said.

“She explained the driver has come around the corner, skidded and ended up on its side.

“She said she saw another guy from a van run to help. He got the two small children out first then had to help the other person in the car who was stuck.”

The youngster apparently heard shouting from the car, but said nobody seemed to be hurt.

A police spokesman added: “Kent Police was called at 7.48am to a one-vehicle collision in Saunders Street, Gillingham.

“Officers attended the scene where no injuries were reported and arrangements were made to recover the vehicle.”
