It appears that a large box truck may have rear-ended an Acura SUV at around 10:11 a.m. on Friday, July 10, in the northbound lane of the Major Deegan Expressway at West 233rd Street.
According to fire department radio transmissions heard at the time, Ladder 46 reported two people injured. Meanwhile, at the crash site, the ladder company was seen by Norwood News parked behind the truck and the Acura was seen in the left lane as the occupants seemingly waited for EMS to arrive.

After an estimated 15 minutes, a firefighter was seen speaking to a male occupant and a female occupant of the Acura, and the man was then seen assisting the woman to get back into the passenger seat of their vehicle. The woman was seen holding her head as she did so. The Acura, box truck, and fire unit then began left the location, heading north, potentially to meet EMS and police at another location. EMS may have been given the wrong location of the crash which may have caused the delay.
A second crash with injuries was also referenced on social media on the northbound Major Deegan Expressway at West 230the Street in Kingsbridge at 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 12, but this crash could not immediately be confirmed.
