ONE person has been taken to hospital after a car flipped on to its roof in an incident in Greenock's west end.
Crews rushed to the accident on Union Street, near its junction with Forsyth Street, this afternoon.
The Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS) has sent several vehicles to the scene, with two fire engines also responding.
