According to one of the local news stations, the elderly woman driving the van accelerated, crashed, and landed on top of the two parked cars. (Accelerated from where, the rooftop?)

Authorities who responded to the scene said there were no serious injuries, but did not break down how exactly the van managed to go airborne. That's kinda impressive, though, not gonna lie.
