Two Dead, Four Others Injured After Fiery Crash on Bronx Highway

The Bronx, NY – Two people were killed and five others were injured from a fiery four-vehicle collision in the Bronx just before midnight of Monday, July 20. This fatal crash occurred when a zooming vehicle headed southbound slammed into a utility pole on the Bruckner Expressway. As the automobile struck the median, it smashed into three other vehicles and burst into flames. Three patients were rushed to Jacobi Medical Center and two were transported to St. Barnabas Hospital. Photos show one of the vehicles appearing to be a total wreck as it seemed to be reduced to a pile of charred metal.
