Tour bus driver arrested in double-decker Times Square crash: NYPD

 The driver of a double-decker tour bus was arrested in connection with a bloody crash in Times Square that left 18 injured Tuesday.

William Dalambert, of Irvington, N.J., was charged with driving while his ability was impaired.
















The NYPD says he crashed a red Gray Line sightseeing bus into a double-decker City Sights bus at 47th St. and 7th Ave., near the TKTS discount ticket booth for Broadway shows.
















Witnesses said the Gray Line bus hurtled into the busy area that's popular with theater-goers and tourists about 3:30 p.m.


A traffic light toppled over onto the sidewalk teeming with foot traffic and its long metal pole stretched across the hard concrete.

None of the injuries are life-threatening, officials said.
It wasn't immediately clear if Dalambert has a lawyer.
