Driver Freed After Car Rolls Over at San Vicente and La Cienega

A car crashed and rolled onto its side at the intersection of North San Vicente Boulevard and La Cienega Boulevard just outside West Hollywood Sunday afternoon, trapping one person on the inside until firefighters were able to free them.
