GRAND JUNCTION, Colo.- An accident at the DoubleTree hotel left one car pinned to a tree.

Gina Flores, a hostess at the hotel, witnessed the accident as she waited for a ride.

She says she saw one person drive away after cutting off another vehicle, causing it to drive off the road and hit a sign and a tree.

Flores described what she saw. "He went through a sign and he hit a tree and it looks like he might've hit the windshield, and his car is t-boned by the tree. So he's really lucky he's not being hauled away in an ambulance."

The driver of the vehicle that crashed sustained only minor injuries and was not taken to the hospital.

There's no word yet on whether Grand Junction police are looking for a second vehicle.
