Brooklyn, NY (December 3, 2020) – On Tuesday afternoon, December 1, a car crash with injuries took place at an intersection in Brooklyn.

According to police, the accident occurred at the intersection of East 105th Street and Avenue L when two vehicles collided with one another. A man was driving his Subaru Forester headed eastbound on the roadway when his vehicle was suddenly struck by a Mercedes Benz driven by a 17-year-old.
