New York, NY : 3 dead, 16 injured in New York bus collision on Monday, September 18th 2017

Three people were killed and 16 were injured after a Metropolitan Transportation Authority bus and a private tour bus collided in Queens, causing one of the buses to crash into a building.

The driver of the Dahlia Travel and Tours bus, which struck the building, was killed in the crash, along with a passenger in the MTA bus and a pedestrian on the sidewalk, according to the NYPD.
"We've had a really tragic morning here in Flushing, Queens. Just shocking to see the scene over there. Hard to compare it to anything I've ever seen, the sheer destruction from the impact of this collision," said Mayor Bill de Blasio during a press conference Monday morning.According to the MTA, a Q20 bus was struck by the private bus on Northern Boulevard and Main Street at 6:21 a.m. Investigators were interviewing the driver of the MTA bus, who is among the injured.
The injured all have been transported to nearby hospitals, de Blasio said.
"The first thing we need to understand is what happened here," he said, "because we do not know exactly what happened, if anybody was specifically at fault."
The FDNY was working on accessing the building impacted by the crash to make sure it is secure and safe.
