A motorist was trapped in an overturned vehicle in Great Neck on Saturday, requiring the assistance of multiple Manhasset-Lakeville Fire Department companies and the Nassau County Police Department’s emergency service unit.

Manhasset-Lakeville companies 3, 4, 5 and an ambulance responded to 171 Great Neck Road just after 4 p.m. Saturday after receiving a call for an overturned vehicle and possible fire, but officials said no fire was present when units responded.

The motorist was then removed from the driver’s side of the vehicle in approximately 10 minutes, officials said, and transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital for treatment of undisclosed injuries. A description of the motorist or vehicle was not provided.

Officials said they did not know how the vehicle became overturned.

All units left the scene in 25 minutes, officials said.
