Shocking video<\/a> shows the chain-reaction crash caused by a wrong-way driver in Brooklyn that ended with another car hitting a deli.<\/p>\n

It happened just before 8:30 a.m. Sunday at Union and Henry streets in Carroll Gardens.<\/p>\n

Driver facing charges, sources say<\/p>\n

In the video, you can hear tires screeching before you see a white car barreling up Henry Street, going the wrong way, and crashing into a black car traveling through the intersection at Union Street.<\/p>\n

The impact sends the black car crashing into Garden Gourmet Deli and Grill on the corner.<\/p>\n

Video shows the driver get out of the black car, holding a dog, while police approach.<\/p>\n

“You OK?” an officer asks.<\/p>\n

“I think so,” the driver says.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a man believed to be a cop approaches the wrong-way driver, instructing him to get out of the car.<\/p>\n

According to police sources, that driver \u2013 identified as Juan Tenorio Ramos, 24 \u2013 is facing a slew of charges in connection to the crash, including criminal possession of a controlled substance, reckless endangerment and reckless driving.<\/p>\n

Police sources say Ramos was arrested at least two other times this year, most recently on July 4 for possession of a controlled substance and possession of a weapon on Staten Island.<\/p>\n

A 22-year-old passenger in Ramos’ vehicle and the driver of the black car were taken to a local hospital in stable condition.<\/p>\n

Community helps deli<\/p>\n

Khalid Sarsour, who owns Garden Gourmet Deli and Grill, was standing right next to the register when the crash happened, just steps away from where the car struck his store.<\/p>\n

“Luckily, the door, we got protected by the door, and evidently, the bricks in the bottom help because if it was just straight glass, it would’ve been disaster,” he said.<\/p>\n

Sarsour said the crash sounded “like a huge bomb.”<\/p>\n

\"Broken<\/p>\n

The impact of the crash shattered the deli’s front window.<\/p>\n

“It was a huge crash. I mean, people heard it two blocks away, and we’re just around the corner, so we heard it,” Carroll Gardens resident Alessandra Bastheli said. \u00a0<\/p>\n

“Thank God it was on a Sunday, a holy day. That’s the only thing that saved a lot of people for not being out in the street,” neighbor Lydia Esponda said. “Otherwise, it could have been worse.”<\/p>\n

Bastheli felt compelled to help her beloved corner deli, putting up signs with a GoFundMe.<\/p>\n

“Thank God for that we are safe. Thanks for the support of the community,” Sarsour said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shocking video shows the chain-reaction crash caused by a wrong-way driver in Brooklyn that ended with another car…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":294104,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-294103","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=294103"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294103\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/294104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=294103"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=294103"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=294103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
