A chain reaction crash caused by two drivers who both had suspended licenses sent an SUV careening onto the sidewalk in Kips Bay, injuring at least one pedestrian, police said.

At around 6 p.m. on Wednedasy, the driver of a black sedan traveling north on Third Avenue reportedly stopped short, causing the driver of an SUV behind it to sideswipe the sedan and jump the curb near East 31st Street. The SUV then struck a light pole and sent a metal garbage can hurtling through the air, which hit a woman walking nearby, witnesses told NBC.

“It was a terrible crash, and things went flying. I saw metal flying," witness Arlene Normyle told PIX 11. "The girl was down on the ground."
