Crimebotch
Police had to be rescued from their own patrol car after they crashed on their way to a call out in Oberhausen, Germany.
The squad car hit another motor as it sped through a set of traffic lights, sending the police vehicle spinning out of control until it flipped and came to a rest on its roof.
"Both officers received medical treatment but they were not seriously injured," said a police spokesman.
The other driver is said to have survived the high-speed shunt unharmed.
