Two young men were killed early Saturday morning after blowing through a red light and slamming into another car, before coming to a deadly stop against a subway station pillar in the Bronx, police said.
The men were reportedly driving a BMW "at a high rate of speed" when they ran a red light on Jerome Avenue and East Fordham Road around 4:15 a.m., according to police.
After blowing the light, police say they clipped a Nissan Rogue. The crash sent both cars spinning, and sent the BMW straight into the pillar of the elevated station for the No. 4 train.
The 23-year-old BMW operator and his 21-year-old passenger both died, according to police.
