A two-car crash sent one vehicle into a building in Bedford-Stuyvesant late Tuesday night, leaving three people hurt and forcing part of the building to be temporarily vacated.
The crash happened just before 11:10 p.m. on Fulton Street.
Police say a black Cadillac and a BMW collided. The impact sent the BMW into the front of a commercial building, where it also struck a 28-year-old who was walking nearby.
The pedestrian and both drivers were taken to Kings County Hospital. Police say all three are expected to recover.
The crash left heavy damage to the front of the building. By Wednesday morning, the damaged area had been boarded up, and the New York City Department of Buildings had posted a partial vacate order affecting the building's first-floor commercial space and a staircase while inspectors evaluate the structure.
New video from inside the building shows a damaged red standpipe that was bent when the BMW crashed into the building, sending water pouring inside. Workers spent the morning pumping water out of the building, and a neighboring business, Noir Yoga, appeared to have water damage as well.
The FDNY says National Grid was called to the scene to help shut off the gas as a precaution.
Investigators are still working to determine what caused the crash.
