Queens, NY (July 9, 2025) – Four people were injured Tuesday afternoon in a two-car collision that occurred near 9609 Springfield Boulevard in the Queens Village neighborhood of Queens. The crash prompted a swift response from local emergency crews due to the impact’s severity and the number of people injured.
Paramedics and firefighters were on the scene shortly after the crash took place. The four injured individuals received prompt medical attention at the site before being transported to nearby hospitals for further care. According to officials, injuries ranged from minor to moderate, and all parties are expected to make a full recovery.
Both vehicles involved sustained significant front-end damage. One car came to rest partially on the sidewalk, while the other remained in the street, obstructing traffic in both directions. Witnesses in the area reported hearing a loud crash, with several bystanders from nearby homes and businesses rushing out to assist or observe.
Authorities temporarily closed off a section of Springfield Boulevard to allow for a full investigation and safe removal of the damaged vehicles. As of now, the identities of those involved have not been made public. Investigators are reviewing several potential causes, including excessive speed, driver distraction, and failure to yield.
Our thoughts are with those injured in this collision, and we commend the Queens Village emergency responders for their rapid and professional efforts at the scene.
