Buses collide in Lincoln Tunnel, injuring at least 32

Reported by CNBC: 

Fire officials say two buses have collided in the Lincoln Tunnel, and authorities say 32 people have been hurt, included seven with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.

Officials say a NJ Transit bus rear-ended another at about 9:50 a.m. ET Friday in the tunnel’s center tube and then drove into New York City and pulled over. The accident snarled morning rush hour traffic.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which manages the tunnel, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Lincoln Tunnel connects New York City with New Jersey and is a major transit artery.

Officials said the tunnel was open, with delays.
