<\/a>THE SITE OF a seemingly three-vehicle accident at Decatur Avenue and East 207th Street, Norwood, The Bronx, 7\/26\/2026\u00a0Photo by S\u00edle Moloney<\/p>\n
Norwood News has reached out to An FDNY \/ EMS spokesperson said the department received a 911 call at 11.32 a.m. on Sunday for a report of a motor vehicle accident with injuries at East 207th Street and Decatur Avenue.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
They said EMS transported three civilians to a local area hospital and their conditions and descriptions are unknown.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The accident took place at the junction next to P.S. 56.<\/p>\n
When contacted, the NYPD press office said they did not yet have a report on the incident and recommended that Norwood News check back later on Sunday. We did and they still did not have an official report on the incident. We will share any further updates we receive as and when they become available.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Substantial damage was seen to two cars with less damage to a third. Air bags appeared to have been deployed inside some of the vehicles. They were later towed away. A police officer at the scene did say that a gray-colored car had been moved after the accident and prior to the attached video being recorded (perhaps to let passing traffic get by.) Skid marks were seen at the junction and debris was scattered across the street.<\/p>\n Several people were at the scene on Sunday but nobody we spoke to had actually seen the accident take place. Norwood News was informed of some second-hand information regarding the incident from one person who declined to be identified. For legal reasons, we are unable to publish this information at this time.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n We will provide any further updates that are publishable as soon as they become available.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Speaking in Spanish, one woman said she heard the collision and that it was very loud and very strong.<\/p>\n Another male bystander, Onell, who lives on Decatur Avenue said the neighborhood was generally quiet. \u201cThings like this don\u2019t happen often here, especially at this intersection because, you know, not only do we have lights now but it\u2019s a school setting. We barely see people going past 10 [p.m.] around here.\u00a0 People are very respectful.\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a small neighborhood. Anyone that comes around here probably lives around here.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThis is truly shocking,\u201d Onell continued.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n With collision investigations, the NYPD handles all criminal aspects of the investigation, while NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) reviews the street design at the locations of such crashes.<\/p>\n As reported<\/a>, a murder took place in the same general area as the accident in early June.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call the NYPD\u2019s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or, for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at\u00a0https:\/\/crimestoppers.nypdonline.org\/<\/a>, on X @NYPDTips.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n All calls are strictly confidential.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
