Maspeth Street and Bushwick Avenue = we were driving along and the street was blocked off cause of this.. Obviously the white car is the E60, but the other is some jeep maybe? Its flipped over and barely recognizable! Even NYPD was taking pics with their cell phones while we were driving by..

Geez Mel. That looks bad. It appears the Jeep is touching the light pole, which may be in contact with power lines? In addition to the obvious damage, that can't be good.

For the E60 i think is ok but for the Jeep is very bad wreck

it could have even been there from either early in the a.m. or the night before. my assumption is it happened some time in the early hours. we drove by around 7 a.m. just the police were there, any EMS that was there was long gone.. crazy isnt it.. its hard to see in the pics, but the front left side of the e60 was a mess too..
