Police said a wrong car crash Monday night in Vermont Square killed two people, including the baby, and both were in critical condition.
At 11:36 p.m., a white sedan “turned oncoming traffic at high speeds” and crashed into another sedan at Western Avenue near 47th Street.
The driver of the white sedan, a man in his 40s, was killed, and a 6-month-old baby was also killed. Miller said both were pronounced dead at the scene.
He said two other passengers in the car, a 20-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman, were taken to the hospital, and they remained in critical condition.
