Pedestrian killed in Manhattan scaffold collapse following garbage truck accident
A pedestrian was killed Tuesday morning in East Harlem when scaffolding collapsed after a garbage truck crash, police said.
Authorities reported that a man driving a privately owned garbage truck, with a passenger beside him, was traveling west on East 101st Street around 6:30 a.m. when he struck a parked Kia. The parked vehicle, which was unoccupied, was pushed onto the sidewalk and into scaffolding at 345 East 101st Street.
The pedestrian was beneath the scaffolding when it gave way and was pronounced dead at the scene. The victim has not been identified. Several other people sustained minor injuries.
The driver of the garbage truck and his passenger remained at the scene. Video shared on the Citizen app captured emergency responders addressing the situation. No arrests have been made, and the investigation is ongoing.
