Two women were injured in Miami on Wednesday morning, when their Mercedes-Benz drove off the second-floor parking area of a building there, authorities said.

The incident happened shortly before 11:30 a.m., near SW 58th Avenue and 8th St.

Authorities say an employee at a nearby restaurant rushed to the scene to help rescue the women from inside the car.

Fire Rescue then personnel took them to Jackson Memorial Hospital.

A Miami Fire Rescue technical rescue team assessed the building and determined there is no need to stabilize any part of the area where the crash occurred.

The roadway was closed in both directions near the scene after the incident.

The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
