'Nightmare' seven-car collision in Bradford village
- Published
Police are investigating a crash in a Bradford village involving seven vehicles.
Officers attended the collision, on Ford Hill, Queensbury, at 02:47 BST on Thursday, and a 34-year-old man was treated at the scene.
One resident, whose parked car was damaged in the incident, said the collision was so forceful a vehicle almost ended up being shunted into her front room.
West Yorkshire Police said enquiries are continuing.
The incident occured when a white Audi crashed into a stationary car triggering a domino effect, and leading to six stationary cars on the residential street being damaged by the impact.
Four of them are believed to have been written-off.
Resident Holly Johnson told the BBC: "We woke to the sound of crashing, and car alarms going off.
"It was like a nightmare.
"The Audi zoomed straight into a Citroen - then six cars in total were involved.
"Someone from the Audi was injured - I could hear a lad screaming."
It is understood the man's injuries are not serious.
Ms Johnson, 24, said: "The cars all bounced along the road and one nearly came straight into my front room,
"A gas pipe was also damaged - that could have led to a major gas leak and the house could have gone up in flames."
A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson confirmed officers on patrol came across a multi-vehicle collision on Ford Hill.
Ms Johnson, a teaching assistant, added: "We're all so shaken up.
"You just want to feel safe in your own house."
