The body of a person killed in the accident was pictured lying underneath a bloodied sheet.

Alyssa Elsman, 18years old.



It had driven the wrong way up Seventh Ave when it mounted the curb.

On average, 330,000 people pass through Times Square every day.

The area is currently closed off to pedestrians by police.

This is the harrowing moment a drug-crazed driver mercilessly plowed through pedestrians in Times Square on Thursday at 11.55am before telling police when he was arrested that he wanted to kill them 'all' and then be shot dead himself.

The driver was pictured running across the road, try to flee with his arms flailing after crashing into a pole on the sidewalk.

He was arrested at the scene moments later by NYPD officers after being stopped by a group of Good Samaritans which included a Planet Hollywood bouncer who tackled him to the ground.

A woman, believed to be dead, was seen lying on the sidewalk with her face covered with a sheet.

Other victims could be seen sprawled out across the pavement.

Victims sprawled on the sidewalk were being tended to by first responders and other pedestrians.

Fire crews were seen treating a bloodied woman lying on the ground in Times Square.

Police were filmed taking a man into custody shortly after the deadly collision.

Rojas was given a red t-shirt to wear by authorities after having his own clothes torn by a Good Samaritan at the scene who wanted to ensure he was not concealing any weapons.

That idiot is an effing terrorist. A terrorist is a person who uses violence, threats of violence, intimidation and other means that can kill a human being, in order to achieve an outcome.
