While Kevin Hart recuperates from emergency back surgery following the serious car accident he was involved in over the weekend, police are still investigating into the crash, and recently noted that speed may have been a factor when Hart’s vehicle went off the side of a cliff.
According to TMZ, a witness told police that they saw Hart’s 1970 Plymouth Barracuda “peeling out” moments before the muscle car veered off the side of the road and crashed through a fence before landing in a ravine about 10 feet away from the roadside.
As was previously reported, Kevin’s friend, Jared Black, was behind the wheel of the vehicle at the time of the crash, which happened around 12:45 a.m. early Sunday morning in Malibu Hills.
Hart and Black’s fiancée, celebrity trainer Rebecca Broxterman, were passengers in the vehicle. Photos below show the car’s roof completely obliterated. It’s a miracle anyone made it out alive.
Broxterman was pinned and had to be pulled out of the vehicle by first responders, but was able to escape the crash with minor injuries.
Hart and Black were also extracted from the vehicle, but both suffered “major back injuries,” according to reports.
Despite being badly injured in the accident, sources close to Hart say he didn’t injure his spinal cord and he’s able to “walk and move his extremities.”
Black was reportedly airlifted to UCLA Medical Center and is surrounded by friends and family as he also recovers.
