AN elderly man escaped with minor injuries after his car crashed through a barrier and teetered over the edge in the Charlestown Square car park yesterday.
The man was pulled through a back door of his Mitsubishi Magna after it became wedged, the front end hanging over the small drop on the first level of the Myer car park about 9.30am.
Police were waiting to interview the driver.
They will investigate how the station wagon suffered rear end damage before it drove forward through the barrier.
It is not believed there were any other vehicles involved.
A four-wheel-drive vehicle was used to pull the car back onto the first level of the car park before it was driven outside to be towed away.
The man is not believed to have received major injuries.
