ATTLEBORO, Mass. (WPRI) - Attleboro Police are investigating a pedestrian struck on a sidewalk after a minor crash on Washington Street Friday morning.

The fire department said two cars had a minor collision, but as a result of it, one of the cars went up on a sidewalk and hit a pedestrian, a woman in her thirties.

She and another person were rushed to Sturdy Hospital with injuries that aren't life-threatening.

Original reports had included rumors of one of the cars actually rolling over. Video from the scene shows one of the cars involved being carted away on a flatbed tow truck. It's unclear if there was serious damage done.

The incident is still under investigation.
