Los Angeles officials say that Tiger Woods conscious when they arrived to the crash and there was “no evidence of impairment,” Sheriff Alex Villanueva said at a news conference on Tuesday.

County Fire Chief Daryl Osby said Wood’s was trapped in the car. He said personnel got him out of the car using a tool for prying and an axe, not the “jaws of life” that was previously reported.

The sheriff said neighbors called 911 at 7:12 a.m. local time.

“We have to assume they made that call almost immediately, as soon as it happened, because the neighbors are sitting right within 50 feet of the location,” Villanueva said.

Villanueva said the vehicle was a 2021 Genesis SUV.

Osby said Woods was then transported to Harbor-UCLA Medical Center because it is also a trauma center.

Officials said there was a second vehicle accident, but no one was hurt.
