Van Crashes Off Bronx River Parkway: 7 Dead
Social media reports and NBC New York confirm a horrific accident today on Bronx Zoo property. A van drove off a Bronx River Parkway overpass and crashed close to (or in, proximity in early reports is still vague) the Bronx Zoo. F.D.N.Y. reports indicate all the passengers in the van were killed. Of the seven known fatalities, it’s unclear whether all were in the van or some were walking on the street where it landed. Multiple sources state 3 of the deceased were children.
