Warning: some viewers may find certain scenes in the video to be distressing
A horrifying video of a shocking incident that took place in New York City between the driver of a black Range Rover and a large group of motorcyclists taking part in an annual bikers' event has been making the internet rounds this morning. According to commentators, the incident left one rider dead, several others injured, and the driver of the SUV in a coma, though, we have yet to confirm all this from official sources.
The motorcycle-helmet footage surfaced on several sites including YouTube, but at the time we wrote this piece, we haven’t discovered the original source.
In the footage, we see dozens of bikers circling the black Range Rover and eventually slowing down to a halt (at the 50 second mark), then, all of a sudden, the SUV makes a run for it driving over several riders.
A group of motorcyclists then chases the SUV on the freeway until they catch up with the driver on the Cross Bronx Expressway exit, and attempt to attack (at 4:55), but he or she makes another run for it, crashing into another biker in the process.
The motorcyclists hop on their bikes and continue the chase until the Range Rover hits traffic, with riders then breaking the windows of the SUV, at which point, the video ends…
