A 27-year-old man was seriously injured Friday morning after he lost control of his vehicle while driving in Pointe-Claire, in Montreal's West Island.
According to Montreal police (SPVM), his car was travelling southbound Des Sources Boulevard around 4 a.m. when it swerved near the Donegani Avenue intersection, hitting a concrete wall and a lampost.
The car rolled over, causing the driver, knocked unconscious, to be trapped inside.
Firefighters extracted him from the wreck and he was rushed to hospital. Around 7:30 a.m., police reported that his life was out-of-danger.
