WOODMERE, N.Y. — A car slammed into a building where Orthodox Jewish families were celebrating Hanukkah on Thursday, injuring 14 people, police said.
Police said the injured ranged in age from 1 1/2 to 40, and four were hospitalized in serious condition. At least six of the injured were young children, hospital officials said.
The families from the Chabad Orthodox Jewish movement were celebrating Chanukah Wonderland, an all-day celebration with events geared for children. Thursday was the fifth day of the eight- day Jewish festival of lights.
About 150 people were inside the building when a 78-year-old man lost control of his car and plowed through a plate-glass window, Nassau County police said.
