A SEDAN has been left hanging in the balance after "intentionally" crashing through a barrier at the top of a parking garage.

Terrifying images show the white Honda Civic dangling over the edge of the fifth floor of the garage, above the Alewife Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) station.

Boston police have described the incident as "intentional."

The car careened into a concrete barrier, sending a 10,000-pound concrete block plummeting into the train station's glass ceiling.

A 14-year-old girl below was hit by the falling glass, sending her to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.

The trusses held together to stop the barrier from falling onto MBTA passengers underground.

Police have not identified the driver or the driver's motives but said the act appeared deliberate.

"The motorist’s actions were intentional," MBTA Police said in a tweet.

"Station to remain closed and service between Alewife/Davis suspended. Buses will replace service until station reopens."

Busses are shuttling Alewife commuters until further notice as the station remains closed indefinitely.

Officials said they are cleaning up from the wreck's aftermath.

The heavy barrier and the heavily damaged sedan have been removed from their precarious positions.

Railway officials told local NBC affiliate WBTS-TV that they would perform stress tests on the roof before opening the station back up to the public.

MBTA Interim General Manager, Jeff Gonneville, said the incident could have been a lot worse.

"This could have been an absolutely horrific event," he said in a press conference.

"This was a very serious incident and certainly something we are making sure as well, when we open the station … that the situation will be safe."
