The scene on Rising Sun Avenue in Lawndale, where a stolen Hyundai was involved in a crash with a business minivan and a SEPTA bus. The crash caused the SEPTA bus to crash into a PNC Bank on the street.
The crash also involved a SEPTA bus, which subsequently drove into a PNC Bank on Rising Sun Avenue, causing damage to the building. The bus driver sustained face and head injuries and was transported to Jefferson Torresdale Hospital, where he is in stable condition, police say. Authorities say the Hyundai was stolen out of Northeast Philadelphia last week and has since been used in several robberies.
According to police, the suspect driving the Hyundai got out after the crash and got into a Volkswagen that was following it before the collision, fleeing the scene. The driver of the minivan told authorities cash from his business was inside the vehicle, but he believes the cash was stolen in the chaos from the crash. This is a developing story.
