The Rush Hour Crash on Gannon Avenue South
The FDNY said it received a 911 call about the crash at around 7:20 a.m. Gannon Avenue South is a service road for the Staten Island Expressway. About an hour later, five vehicles sat at the curb close to Victory Boulevard, and that count did not include police cars or tow trucks. Radio traffic from emergency crews put the number of cars involved at up to six. The FDNY said EMS took two people to area hospitals.
What Is Still Unknown After the Willowbrook Crash
An FDNY spokesperson was not immediately able to say which hospitals the two people were taken to or what their conditions were. No information has been released about the people involved or about charges. No details have been announced about the investigation.
Investigators write down the weather, lighting and road surface after every serious crash. Recording those details is routine and does not point to any single cause.
