NY — Two parking-garage workers were injured on Tuesday morning when a sport-utility vehicle plunged down an elevator shaft in an Upper East Side garage.
Fire Department officials said a parking attendant behind the wheel of a Lexus RX 350 apparently plowed through the doors to the elevator on the fifth floor of the garage, on 76th Street near First Avenue. The sport-utility vehicle landed upside down on top of an elevator car on the ground floor that had another worker, Angel Rosa, 53, inside.
“You heard the big rumbling and then boom,” said Christopher Conroy, who works at a Hertz location at the garage.
