Car Crashes into Trump Plaza in New Rochelle, Injuring 2

A car crashed into Trump Plaza in New Rochelle, New York, on Tuesday around 9 p.m., injuring three people including the driver, police say.

A witness, Israel Galvan, said the male driver plowed his Mercedes-Benz C300 coupe into the luxury residence building before “casually” stepping out of the driver’s seat and sitting on a couch in the lobby of the building, ABC7 New York reported, citing the New Rochelle Police Department.

“I just heard, like, a big boom. And everyone in there heard, like, something, and some didn’t. And I just came out this way, and I just see all the glass. Then I come down, and I see the guy — he’s, like, casually just coming out,” Galvan told ABC7.

“Witness says driver casually exited his car after crash and took a seat on the couch, didn’t say a word. Police now say driver was injured – he is talking to authorities; 2 pedestrians in the lobby were also injured — no serious injuries to anyone,” ABC7 reporter CeFann Kim wrote on Twitter.
