NEW YORK — Former “NBC Nightly News” anchor Tom Brokaw and his wife said they escaped injury in a three-vehicle accident on a New York City highway that killed a 30-year-old woman and injured a mail-truck driver Friday afternoon.
Police and the Brokaws said a 1998 Ford Expedition swerved to avoid a spool of cable bouncing in the right lane, which caused the driver of the sport utility vehicle to lose control. The Expedition overturned and hit the mail truck, police said. The truck then collided with the Brokaws’ vehicle.
Suejas Estrada of the Bronx was thrown from the Expedition and died.
