#Bus dangles off NYC overpass after crash injures 7

An MTA bus driver lost control of the vehicle and careered off a Bronx overpass in a crash that left at least nine people injured on Thursday night, authorities said.

The harrowing incident took place at around 11:10 p.m. as the driver of the Bx35 bus was trying to turn left off University Avenue onto a ramp to the Washington Bridge, according to MTA sources.

But the male driver veered off track, causing the bus to crash off the elevated road.

The front section of the bus landed flat on its front windshield onto part of Cross Bronx Expressway, while the rear portion remained grounded on University Avenue.

One of the victims sustained serious injuries, the FDNY said, while the others were considered non-life threatening and minor.

Witness Bryan Garcia said he was inside his apartment when he saw the bus run off the road.

Then he said, “I heard a big boom, a crash. I heard people from the bus screaming for help.”

Once Garcia got outside, he said first responders were already rescuing people from the bus.

It was not immediately clear if all of the injuries were sustained by people aboard the bus.

The victims were all taken to area hospitals, the FDNY said.
