NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- Ten people were injured in the Bronx on Sunday evening when a minivan crashed into an MTA bus and caught fire.
The FDNY responded to the crash around 7:20 p.m. at East 180th Street and Crotona Parkway in Crotona.
A TLC minivan rear-ended a Bx9 bus, causing the bus to hit a four-door sedan, according to police and the MTA.
The minivan then burst into flames, cops said.
"He has to be going like 80, 95 mph," witness Marc Davis said. "I kept saying, 'He's going to hit the bus, he's going to hit the bus... Damn, he hit the back of that bus!' And he spins his whole car around and then he hit another black car that was coming this way."
The minivan driver was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital and is expected to survive.
There were 10 patients in total, with seven people transported to hospitals and three declining transport, the FDNY said.
Among those injured were three bus passengers and three people in the sedan. All of them were said to have non-life-threatening injuries.
