2 women injured after crash in Philadelphia's Kensington section, police say
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Two women riding on a Honda dirt bike were injured in a crash in Philadelphia's Kensington section on Monday night, police said.
The crash happened on Kensington and Castor avenues at around 8:30 p.m. underneath SEPTA's Market-Frankford Line, according to police.
Police said the two women were on a Honda dirt bike without a license plate, lights and turn signals heading southbound on Kensington Avenue toward Castor. A man driving a Ford SUV northbound on Kensington Avenue made a left turn onto Castor and collided with the two women, police said.
Both women were knocked off the dirt bike as a result of the crash, according to police.
One woman in her early 20s was unresponsive and had trauma to her head and neck. She was placed in extremely critical condition.
The other woman, a 22-year-old, had injuries to her torso and hip. She was placed in critical condition, but she's expected to survive, according to authorities.
Police said a man driving the Ford stayed on the scene and is cooperating with police. The Ford and dirt bike were each damaged in the crash.
Another dark colored SUV might've driven through the intersection of Kensington and Castor avenues at the time of the crash, but police don't believe the vehicle is involved in the incident.
Editor's note: In a previous version of this story, police said the crash was a hit-and-run. But authorities now say the driver remained on the scene.
