Police said two people were in the car at the time of the crash, which happened late Wednesday night.

Police said the male driver of the car, who is from Braddock, was not hurt in the crash. His female passenger suffered a head injury and was taken to the hospital. Her current condition has not been released.

Police told Channel 4 Action News that reconstruction teams were called to the scene, because it's not clear what caused the crash, though it does appear the car was traveling at a high rate of speed.
