One young girl was seen holding her head forward in their hands and another was seen resting her head on the shoulder of her colleague. It appeared that some were cut a little on their foreheads.

 

One young girl appeared to have thrown up. A nearby store employee who said he exited his store when he heard the bang surmised the cuts were due to the impact of when the airbags expanded in the car though we cannot confirm this. He said he had experienced something similar in the past.

Speaking in Spanish, one female resident said the car involved in the crash had been descending at speed in a southwesterly direction along East Mosholu Parkway North towards Jerome Avenue and had attempted to turn left on Jerome Avenue but crashed into the pillar as it did so. “They took the little girl out of the backseat because there was a lot of smoke,” the woman said.

 

Speaking in Spanish, another local female employee who said she exited her store when she heard the bang from the crash said the driver of the car who she described as wearing a brown top exited the car. “Some of the occupants exited out the back [of the car],” she said. “The one who seems to be the most bruised is the little one who was in front,” she said.

 

The woman said she heard the police ask the driver of the vehicle if she had been drinking and alleges the driver said she had been a little. The woman said the driver had shown her driver’s license to police. She added that nobody had been trapped inside the vehicle.
