NEW YORK (CBS) ― Seven people, including two children are recovering from injuries they suffered when an out of control van jumped a curb.
 
The van barrelled into a crowded subway station entrance at East 125th Street and Lexington Avenue in East Harlem just before 7 a.m. Friday.

Witnesses said the van struck five women, a 7-year-old girl and a 2-year-old boy who was briefly pinned underneath the vehicle.

"They were just crossing and the van just hit em...There was a baby and 7 others got hurt," a witness said.

The driver of the van, 58-year-old Cesar Tabora was pronounced dead at the scene of an apparent heart attack.

All of the injured are expected to survive.
