Two men were killed and three others critically injured in Upper Manhattan on Friday after a driver plowed into multiple parked cars and hopped a curb, cops said.
The motorist, 61, was heading northbound near Amsterdam Avenue and West 109th Street in Morningside Heights when he lost control of a black Mercedes-Benz at around 6 p.m., according to the NYPD.
The driver barreled into two parked cars – a gray Volkswagen and a brown minivan – before striking a group of pedestrians on the sidewalk.
Police believe the crash was not intentional.
Two of the five men, ages 35 and 46, were killed.
A 36-year-old, 44-year-old and a 51-year-old man were taken to St. Luke’s Hospital in critical condition, police said.
Surveillance footage shown to the Post shows the car flying through the intersection.
The driver slammed into a van parked in front of a nearby barbershop and then careened into a group sitting outside.
