Broadway cab crash leaves six injured


Just saw this on WCBS:

A pair of taxicabs collided in the East Village Sunday night, careening into a sidewalk scaffolding and leaving six people injured.

The two cabs crashed and, in the process, brought down the scaffolding, and were left under the mangled mess hours after the accident.

A witness tells CBS 2 that one of the cabs tried to overtake the other before the two collided and careened across Broadway at the corner of E. 8th Street, jumping the curb and coming to rest on the sidewalk under the scaffolding.


Gothamist has more photos. Looks like the Gap was taken out in the accident.

And this was the second crash involving cabs in the neighborhood yesterday.
