A yellow cab crashes into many pedestrians in New York City leaving four people injured

On Monday, a taxi jumped a curb and plowed into many pedestrians on a Manhattan sidewalk, injuring at least four individuals, three of whom were critically injured.

It happened shortly before 1 p.m. at 1186 Broadway in the Flatiron District, between West 28th and 29th streets.

According to police, the taxi SUV was heading northbound on Broadway when it jumped the curb, injured numerous individuals, and crashed into a building.

Three persons in critical condition were taken to Bellevue Hospital. Their true identities have not been revealed.

The taxi driver was treated at the scene for non-life threatening injuries.

The taxi was on the sidewalk and some of the plant barriers were destroyed, according to video and images from the scene in front of Black Seed Bagel and Juice Generation. A wrecked bike had been abandoned in the bike lane.

People should expect traffic delays, road closures, and emergency personnel in the area of Broadway and West 29th Street, according to the Emergency Management department. Drivers should choose another route.

Authorities have not provided any additional information. It is unknown what caused the occurrence. The crash is still being investigated.

  3. To keep the heating and lights on for their dog in the winter, dog owners may be spending close to £300 annually. In his studies, energy efficiency expert Dr. David Glew has observed numerous instances of people leaving the central heating on in their vacant homes to keep their pets warm. He cautions that having the heating on for a dog might increase the annual gas bill in a big family house by £240. Dr. Glew estimates that leaving the lights on for a pet in a few rooms for six hours a day may cost £50 a year with contemporary spotlights or £12 a year with LED lightbulbs. While leaving a fan on would only cost £5, leaving the air conditioning on throughout the entire house may cost hundreds more per year. The majority of healthy pets have enough fur to keep them warm, according to veterinarians, so turning on the heat or air conditioning is typically unnecessary. This month at the Cheltenham Science Festival, Dr. Glew, director of energy efficiency and policy at Leeds Beckett University, brought up the subject in a discussion. There is no need to leave the heater on for pets, he said, but if owners feel they must, they might think about solely heating the room the dog enjoys or lowering the thermostat or radiator dial. According to Energy Saving Trust research from 2015, 43% of pet owners leave the heat on for their animals.To keep the heating and lights on for their dog in the winter, dog owners may be spending close to £300 annually.
