Police have released the identities of five people killed during a horrific two-vehicle crash in Westchester County.
The crash, which took place around 9:23 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 22, occurred after Yonkers Police attempted to stop a white 2009 Infiniti sedan being operated in an erratic manner with equipment violations in the area of South Broadway and Prospect Street, said Yonkers Dt. Lt. Dean Politopoulos.
Officers attempted to stop the sedan for vehicle and traffic law violations in front of 47-85 Riverdale Avenue. The sedan appeared to pull over in front of the location, then immediately accelerated at a high rate of speed southbound on Riverdale Avenue, Politopoulos said.
