Default 20 people injured by speeding car in New York's Times Square. 1 dead
http://news.sky.com/story/ten-people...quare-10883150


Just breaking news







[At least 10 people have been injured and one is dead after a speeding car struck pedestrians in New York City's Times Square.

A witness told Reuters news agency they have seen seven people being loaded onto stretchers, shoes scattered around the scene and one person covered in a bloodstained blanket.

An injured pedestrian says the driver's actions appeared to have been "intentional".]

The car would have to be travelling at a really high speed to be stuck on a bollard.

It's mental how busy it is there, so many crowds and takes forever to walk just from one store to another, can only imagine how chaotic and scary this was being there

How awful.
Speeding is idiotic in built up areas.

From the footage I've seen, it doesn't look like an accident.
