Eyewitness video released on Friday (February 23) showed the aftermath of multiple cars colliding into each other on an icy stretch of an expressway in China’s eastern Suzhou city, in an accident that injured at least nine people, police said, Reuters reports.
In the footage, cars were seen clumped together haphazardly on the highway, with one jack-knifed at a steep angle in the air. The pile-up involved over 100 cars, local media reported.
Three people were sent to the hospital and six had minor abrasions, a police said, adding the cause of the accident was under investigation.
Reuters was able to confirm the location of the video from nearby buildings, signage, and power tower matched the satellite image and street view, and corroborating video showed the same scene. Reuters was not able to confirm when the footage was filmed.
