UPDATED JAN 18, 2019

Prince Philip was involved in a car crash near Sandringham in Norfolk on Thursday, and according to an eye witness, the 97-year-old Duke of Edingburg was more concerned with the fate of others involved in the accident over himself.

According to reports, Philip got trapped in his Land Rover that overturned after colliding with a Kia which was carrying two women and a baby. While the royal was not hurt in the incident, the two women had to be treated in hospital before being discharged. The baby miraculously escaped unharmed.

According to witness Barrister Roy Warne, as reported by The Sun, the crash "was frightening to see."

Warne further added how Philip was "dazzled by the sun" while at a T-junction before his vehicle hit the other car. He shared how Philip was pulled from the wreckage while 'conscious' but 'very very shocked and shaken'. The Duke had to be breathalyzed by the police post the accident.
