A New York City bus driver crashed into a closed Burger King early Thursday morning in Brooklyn after he apparently suffered some sort of medical episode while driving.
The unidentified driver remains in critical condition at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn following the accident, which happened near Fort Hamilton Parkway and Caton Ave in Kensington just after midnight.
Neither of his passengers were hurt, however. And, fortunately for the driver, one of them was a medical worker who rushed to his aid.
“He was moaning; he was saying whatever,” passenger Valorie Turner, 60, told Fox 5. “I started CPR.”
Turner added that the bus sped up just before the crash — “and before I knew it, we was in Burger King.”
Stunning pictures from the scene showed police and firefighters gathered around the MTA bus, which was lodged in the front of the fast food restaurant.
