Driver Arrested After 2025 Scaffolding Crash Injured Six

A 23-year-old man was arrested in the Bronx on earlier today in connection to an ongoing investigation. He is now facing a charge of attempted murder.

The NYPD is asking for help identifying a man wanted in connection with a hit-and-run in the Bronx earlier this month. According to police, around 10:50 a.m. on Thursday, July 3, a man driving a 2017 Ford Mustang was heading east on East 149th Street when he tried to make a left turn onto Courtland Avenue. Instead, he lost control, jumped the curb, and hit six people on the sidewalk — three men and three women, ranging in age from 30 to 79. Fortunately, the six victims had only minor injuries and were taken to Lincoln Hospital in stable condition. After the crash, the driver ran off, ditching the car and fleeing on foot. He’s described as a man with a medium complexion and build, dark facial hair, tattoos on both arms, and was last seen wearing a black do-rag, white t-shirt, green sweatpants, and yellow sneakers. If you have any information, you're urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS, or 1-888-57-PISTA for Spanish. Tips can also be submitted online at crimestoppers.nypdonline.org or on X @NYPDTips. All calls are confidential.

Surveillance video shows the vehicle backing out of the scaffolding, police say.

The driver and a passenger fled the scene on foot and are still at large.

All six people were taken to the hospital in stable condition.

The driver then sped away and lost control of the car. According to News12 the car jumped the curb, crashing into scaffolding and striking five other people.
