Car crashes into people in Times Square
A car speeding in the wrong direction on 7th Avenue in busy Times Square jumped a curb, drove on the sidewalk for three blocks, plowed into dozens of pedestrians, and finally crashed into a pole. One woman was killed and 22 others were hurt, four of them critically. Onlookers then chased and captured the driver as he tried to run away from the scene. The violent incident unfolded just before noon on a hot, clear day that had brought crowds of tourists and Manhattan workers into the area.
