Police say a driver trying to parallel park on a New York City street lost control of his minivan and struck several pedestrians standing next to a fruit stand, killing one person and injuring six others.

It happened shortly before 7 p.m. Monday in Manhattan's Chinatown.

Police say the injured pedestrians were hospitalized, including one in critical condition.

Video shows a dark-colored minivan speeding down a street in reverse.

Police say the driver is in his 70s and remained at the scene. Police say he may have mistaken the gas pedal for the brakes.

A man who runs a parking lot across the street tells the New York Post "it sounded like a big boom." He says he saw people under the vehicle and "a lot of blood."
