NORTH MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - Cameras captured a crash in North Miami Beach that almost injured a nearby jogger.
The crash happened just outside of No Limits Auto Repair along Northeast 163rd Street and 26th Avenue at around 7:30 p.m., Tuesday.
Surveillance footage from the business showed what was a close call for a jogger who was almost hit.
You could see the near-miss in the background, and in the foreground, a witness pulling out his phone.
“From here, he was coming this way, and this is how it was: the car came through here, and the guy running over here, so thank God he started running faster,” No Limits Auto Repair owner Fabian Baird said. “If not, he would have been caught by the SUV flipping over. He kept going. He didn’t come back. Anybody can be walking on the street, an accident happens and you never know.”
A 7News viewer sent in a video of the aftermath when Miami-Dade Fire Rescue crews arrived on the scene.
Ralph Pereira was involved in the crash. As he tried to make a turn, his vehicle collided with the SUV.
“I tried to make the space, and he floored it,” Pereira said.
The car could be seen smashed up against a pole and some tire tracks could also be seen in the dirt.
Witnesses said there were only minor injuries, and no one was transported to the hospital.
