Thankfully it wasn't a bomb, it was a New York City cab that blasted through the front window and sent customers into a panic.
At 2:15 on Sunday afternoon, police say a taxi was trying to avoid a bike on Broadway and E. 8th St. when it slammed into the store. Except eyewitnesses say the driver ended up hitting a cyclist as well, taking the biker through the window.
Those on the scene tell Eyewitness News that there were two passengers in the back of the cab, who got a much rougher ride than expected. According to the police report, eight were taken to /*Bellevue Hospital*/ for non-life threatening injuries.
Police do not believe there was any criminality involved.
