NEW YORK (Reuters) – A stunt man filming a car chase in Times Square for a new Nicolas Cage movie crashed his Ferrari into a store front and two pedestrians suffered minor injuries, police and the film’s producers said yesterday.
The crash, which happened early yesterday, was captured on amateur video that was posted on the New York Post web site, www.nypost.com.
It showed two cars weaving in between other traffic before the front one skidded out of control, mounting the sidewalk and crashing into the window of an outlet of an Italian chain restaurant.
Normal traffic in Times Square had been shut down for the filming of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, and all the cars in the video were part of the movie shoot.
