The Philadelphia Police Department is investigating after a trash truck hit parked cars along a street in Manayunk on Wednesday morning.
Police said that a privately-owned garbage truck was going eastbound on Green Lane when it side-swiped two parked cars on Aug. 19 around 8:30 a.m.
In a video obtained by NBC10, the white-colored trash truck is seen going up the hill and approaching the intersection of Smick Street when it comes to a stop.
Then, behind the truck, the front bumper of a white sedan is visibly ripped off at the driver’s side corner. The car’s driver’s side mirror is also torn off.
Surveillance video shared with NBC10 shows the moments when a garbage truck side-swiped at least one parked car along Green Lane in Manayunk on Wednesday.
The trash truck is owned by GSS Waste LLC. When asked for a comment on the incident, a spokesperson for the company told NBC10 that the truck driver waited for about five minutes but left a note when he couldn’t find the owners.
No one was hurt in this incident.
