Four people were injured after an accident involving five cars occurred on the Brooklyn-bound upper level of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

Two victims had to be freed from the wreck and taken to Staten Island University Hospital, according to the Staten Island Advance.

Three Brooklyn-bound upper levels and two upper Staten Island-bound levels were shut down for 70 minutes.

Luckily, it seems that none of those involved in the accident sustained life-threatening injuries.
