Dramatic video shows an MTA car exploding in an enormous fireball just steps from Wall Street’s iconic Charging Bull statue, sending screaming New Yorkers sprinting for safety.
Footage showed the vehicle initially burning fiercely during the Tuesday evening rush hour just outside the MTA’s headquarters at 2 Broadway, a block from the iconic statue.
It then suddenly burst into a fireball, with scary footage showing onlookers running for safety.
Police and firefighters were called to the car fire near the corner of Broadway and Stone Street at around 5:42 p.m., an FDNY spokesperson told The Post.
It took nearly 90 minutes to completely control, according to sources.
Thankfully, there were no injuries, the FDNY said.
There have been no reports suggesting it was suspicious, but the blaze remains under investigation.
A further picture shared on social media shows the charred remains of the vehicle outside a Starbucks.
The MTA confirmed the car was one of its own, but referred further inquiries about the blaze to the FDNY.
