Received report this morning from a Roosevelt Island resident of an:

…accident at the traffic triangle just north of the Riverwalk buildings yesterday. I was walking by around 3 p.m. and there were several ambulances stationed there. A woman was being carried on a stretcher into one of the ambulances. And there was a stroller stuck under one of the wheels of the SUV that seemed to have been involved in the accident. I didn’t see the child and was very worried.

Roosevelt Island Operating Corp ( RIOC ) Public Safety Department Chief Jack McManus confirmed that a collision occurred at the Blackwell Turnaround between a car service SUV and a grandmother walking with an infant in a stroller.
