Police Chase Turns Into Williamsburg Car Crash

2009_11_carcrash.jpg NY1 reports that two people are in the hospital after a Brooklyn car crash last night: "Police say they saw a Toyota Corolla run a red light a little after midnight. They then followed the car, and a few seconds later, the Corolla slammed into a Lexus SUV at Lee Avenue and Rutledge Street in Williamsburg." The Post adds, "The witness said the car apparently being chased was going at least 45 miles per hour." The cops are apparently investigating whether the Corolla's driver was drinking.

If they're in bed before midnight, they are.

They can't drive, they can't shoot, what the fuck???
