A car crash inside the Marina del Rey event venue at 1 Marina Drive in Throggs Neck sent seven people to area hospitals early Monday, with one person left in critical condition. The crash was reported at around 1:35 a.m., according to FDNY, which said another person suffered serious injuries while five others had minor injuries.
The scene left behind a trail of mangled vehicles and scattered debris, according to News 12 Bronx, which captured footage of the aftermath. A black Honda truck had part of its bumper torn off, a black car suffered rear-end damage, and a white Range Rover was towed away with its hood completely caved in.
Citizen video obtained by the station showed one person receiving treatment from EMS at the scene amid the wreckage. The station's report does not specify how the vehicles collided or whether the crash was connected to activity inside the venue itself.
Police Offer Few Answers So Far
Police told the outlet they had no further information on what led to the crash, leaving the circumstances surrounding the collision unresolved for now. No additional details about the people involved, including their identities or ages, have been released.
The crash adds to the steady stream of collision data the city tracks citywide. New York City maintains public Motor Vehicle Collisions datasets covering crashes, people, and vehicles involved in incidents across the five boroughs, though no location-specific analysis tied to Marina del Rey has been released in connection with this crash.
For now, the extent of the damage and the number injured stand as the clearest picture of what happened at the Throggs Neck venue overnight. Hoodline will update this story if police or fire officials release further details.
