A 20-year-old man driving a stolen SUV mowed down at least 10 pedestrians, including two children, in Midtown Manhattan during rush hour Tuesday, according to police. Upon wrecking his stolen ride, the suspect took off on foot, but New Yorkers ensured he wouldn’t get far.
According to the NYPD, the suspect, who does not have a New York State driver’s license and was described as “white or Hispanic,” was driving a 2018 Hyundai Tucson with Illinois plates that had been reported stolen from the Bronx on July 31.
A license plate reader alerted police to the vehicle’s presence at 45th Street and 2nd Avenue around 5:30 p.m.
Officers began following the vehicle while attempting to verify it had in fact been stolen. Having determined the report was accurate, police attempted to pull the vehicle over at 43rd Street and 3rd Avenue amid heavy traffic.
