An MTA bus driver is facing charges after running over a 15-year-old girl and mangling her leg in Williamsburg on Friday.

 

The teen was walking inside the crosswalk at Grand Street and Union Avenue around 8:45 a.m. when the bus made a left turn and pinned the teen’s leg underneath, police said.

 

The victim’s leg was shattered beneath the giant tire, witnesses added.“It was horrible,” a witness told the Post. “The bus should have waited. She was walking and the bus should have waited.”

 

The teen was rushed to Bellevue Hospital in serious condition but she was expected to survive, authorities said.
