Clowing Out of Fuse Triggers Stampede on New York Transit
A fuse blew on an electric car on Times Avenue Boulevard during rush hour causing panic and a wild stampede. Several people were trampled or cut by glass as passengers escaped through windows, but no serious injuries were reported. The car filled with people returning from work and flames and smoke appeared at the center floor. Women fainted and children faced danger but were saved by calm men. The damage from the fire was minor.
