Verrazzano narrows bridge accident

STATEN ISLAND, NY – June 22, 2020 – According to a news report on SILive.com, there was a serious motor vehicle accident that caused significant delays on the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. Today, the city began Phase 2 of the city’s reopening. The news article states that traffic was light prior to the traffic accident. The accident occurred on the Brooklyn-bound side of the bridge leading to significant delays. Emergency responders arrived on the scene at approximately 8:30 in the morning. The New York City Emergency Management urged drivers to consider an alternative route because of the likelihood of “extensive” delays. According to an FDNY spokesperson, the accident injured five individuals. Four of the injured were transported to NYU Langone Hospital in Brooklyn, New York. The other accident victim received treatment at the accident scene. The news report did not report on the severity of the personal injuries sustained by the accident victims taken to NYU Langone Hospital.

Traffic on the Staten Island Expressway was light, although more workers and business owners were being allowed to return to work. All non-essential businesses were closed in March to slow the spread of the coronavirus. Today, New Yorkers are able to shop, visit hair salons, and dine outdoors for the first time in three months.

Christina Morace was not only an an amazing expert in helping us navigate thru the required paperwork for the VCF 9/11 Fund claim, she was also so wonderful in helping us get through the emotional toll of this process. She gave us clarity and encouragement for 3 years now. She was truly helpful and very very kind. We ( including my sister who has passed) feel so fortunate to have Tina "on the case", as expert and friend. We are grateful to Tina and the services of Parker Waichman. Thank you so so much. With much gratitude Sharon Carr (deceased) Karen Carr (sister of deceased) Yvette Christofilis (sister-in-law of deceased)

I would furthermore like to point out that Benita Rollis was especially kind to me and extremely knowledgeable with explaining the process and what to expect. Thank you.
