Bronx, NY (June 16, 2025) – A vehicle collision with injuries occurred Monday afternoon on the westbound side of the Cross Bronx Expressway near Jerome Ave in the Morris Heights section of the Bronx. The crash resulted in significant traffic delays and prompted a quick response from local emergency teams.
At least one individual sustained injuries and was treated on-site by paramedics before being transported to a nearby hospital. The exact nature of the injuries has not been disclosed. Eyewitness accounts suggest multiple vehicles were involved, contributing to the congestion in the area.
The Cross Bronx Expressway (I-95) is known for its challenging traffic conditions, including tight merging lanes and frequent abrupt stops, which increase the likelihood of accidents. The Jerome Ave interchange further complicates the area with fast-moving exits and re-entry ramps.
The NYPD and FDNY worked to clear the scene and investigate the cause of the crash. Authorities are considering factors such as speed, lane changes, and driver inattention as potential causes.
We extend our best wishes for a swift recovery to those injured in the crash.
