Queens Dollar Van Driver Who Hurt 12 In Crash Still At Large

ST. ALBANS, QUEENS —Police are still looking for the dollar van driver who hurt 12 passengers after he slammed into a light pole in St. Albans last month.

The van driver crashed into a pole at the corner of Farmers and Linden Boulevards about 2:30 p.m. on May 16, injuring 12 passengers, an FDNY spokesman said.

The driver got out of the car — a 2008 Ford SUV — and ran away, according to police.

Twelve passengers suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Police did not release the victims' names but said they ranged in age from 18 to 53 years old.

There are no arrests and the investigation is ongoing.
