Fiery Three-Car Crash At West 104th And Amsterdam

Via WABC 7

Last night around 8:30 p.m., three cars were involved in an ultimately incendiary collision on the Upper West Side. WABC 7 reports that the cars crashed at West 104th Street and Amsterdam Avenue: "One of the cars burst into flames. Another rammed into a bus shelter and ended up on the sidewalk."

Bwog posted last night, "The fire is out now after a quick response from the FDNY and everybody has been removed from the wreck, but there is still a heavy amount of smoke around that you may have smelled." Apparently six people were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. DNAinfo has more pictures (including one of a car under another car) and passerby took video of the car fire—scary stuff:
