wedding-party/
Twenty people were killed when a wedding-limo crash spilled over into a
busy restaurant parking lot in upstate New York, officials and reports
said Sunday.
Eighteen of the dead were traveling in the limo, while two were
bystanders, a person with knowledge of the investigation told The
Associated Press.
Two vehicles, including the limo carrying a wedding party, collided at an
intersection in Schoharie ? about 35 miles west of Albany ? around 1:55
p.m. Saturday, according to New York State Police.
The SUV-style stretch limo was speeding downhill when it smashed into
another vehicle, sending at least one of them careening into the parking
lot of the Apple Barrel cafe, a popular spot for tourists taking in
upstate’s fall foliage, according to the Albany Times Union.
“I heard a loud bang, [and] I came out my front door to see what was going
on,” resident Bridey Finnagen told local ABC affiliate News 10. “I saw a
lot of people here at the Apple Barrel out in the parking lot. Then I
heard screaming.
“Then I saw this large van, a very unusual looking vehicle out here in
Schoharie, in the bushes and really wrecked, hit a tree,” she continued.
The crash kicked off a huge emergency response that included six
ambulances, three fire companies and two helicopters, the Times Union
reported.
“The first responders broke some windows [on the vehicles] to try to get
people out,” said Finnegan. “I believe the Jaws of Life were here on the
side of one of the fire trucks.”
State police confirmed the deaths of 20 people at the scene, but would not
provide any other details pending a 3 p.m. news conference.
The names of the deceased were not immediately released as state police
worked through notifying their next-of-kin in the wake of the massive
smash-up.
Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board are en route
to investigate one of the deadliest vehicular accidents the region has
seen in years.
Those fearing that a loved one may have been involved in the collision are
urged to call the New York State Police at (877) 672-4911.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.
Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
