Manhattan, NY – Car Crashes into Inwood Bar & Grill, Injures Over 20 People
Manhattan, NY (January 3, 2022) – A vehicle crashed into a restaurant in upper Manhattan Monday, January 2, injuring at least 20 people. Thankfully, no one suffered life-threatening injuries.
Sources say the incident occurred on Broadway near 204th Street in Inwood. Reports show two vehicles collided when one lost control and collided into the front end of a restaurant.
A 10-year-old girl was among the worst injured, suffering a broken leg in the accident. Authorities report the driver of the vehicle that slammed into the restaurant fled the scene.
The other vehicle’s driver remained on-site and cooperated with authorities. He was identified as an uber driver who suffered injuries along with his passenger.
Authorities are still working to determine what caused the accident.
We hope for the full recovery of those with injuries.
