COMIC Richard Ayoade was involved in a horror car crash which saw two pedestrians knocked down.
Witnesses said a woman was sent flying by a “speeding” Renault which then smashed into Ayoade’s Mercedes SUV.
Another woman was also struck down amid chaotic scenes on Saturday afternoon.
The IT Crowd star Ayoade, 49, was seen getting out of his vehicle clutching his neck by a roundabout at East Dulwich, South East London.
Paramedics and police “swarmed” the area at 5pm before both pedestrians were taken to hospital and the cars towed away.
One witness said: “The Renault came speeding along the road and hit a woman — she ended up on the other side of the roundabout.
“Then the Renault hit Richard Ayoade’s car.
“It smashed straight into the side of his vehicle and then managed to hit another woman.
“We heard one of the pedestrians who was hit screaming and crying.” Married dad of two Ayoade was seen talking to police.
He won a Bafta in 2014 for his role as nerdy Maurice Moss in C4’s The IT Crowd, and has been in a string of other shows, including hosting Travel Man: 48 Hours In…..
The London Ambulance Service said yesterday: “We treated two women at the scene before taking them to a major trauma centre.”
The Met Police are investigating.
They said the pedestrians did not suffer life-changing or life-threatening injuries.
Reps for Ayoade were contacted.
