From DNA Info:A car carrying Queens Borough President Helen Marshall and two top aides was rammed on Tuesday morning by a Channel 4 news truck following Marshall to an early-afternoon tour of a Queens hospital, sources said.
Neither Marshall nor three staff members in her car were seriously injured when the TV van plowed into the car's rear bumper at Beach 35th Street and Seagirt Boulevard, said Marshall's spokesman, Dan Andrews, who was riding in the car.
Marshall's car was stopped at a red light at about 11:45 a.m. when the news van jarred the four passengers.
Marshall's car was headed at the time to St. John's Episcopal Hospital, where she was going to check the condition of the emergency room following news yesterday that nearby Peninsula Hospital will close.
Andrews admitted he may have unintentionally misled the police into thinking the accident had led to serious injuries.
When police asked Andrews if everyone in Marshall's entourage was OK, Andrews told them they were heading to the hospital. He said the cops, not knowing about Marshall's scheduled tour of St. John's, probably thought they were going to St. John's to seek medical treatment.

Possibly needing the ER for herself...the Beep could check out conditions there with a more personal eye.
Maybe that little "bump" woke her up.
She's generally in a catatonic condition for her constituents but always wide awake for the developers.
Oh, that poor, befuddled B.P. Marshal.
LOL!
You say she was bumped from behind?
Whoa...
did one of Scheckler's "Trib" massagee-whore ads team "pork" her?
It's been years since she had a bump from behind, so don't be surprised if she has a spring in her step for a few days.
On a related note, Toby Ann Stavisky has been spotted repeatedly jamming the brakes of her car and stopping short, exhorting, "Come on ... ram me .. it's my turn now!"
te he he
this blog is a riot! you do fine work crappy.
but seriously, this blog is getting a little out of focus.
with the amount of crap left and right of us you can easily do double the stories every day - even if they are just about here - this wonderful garden spot of they call queens - and still have room to spare!
how about more parodies of newspaper crap they feed the seniors and gullible.
But did it knock any sense into her?
Prognosis? Doubtful!
Hope Helen and her staff were in the Rockaways looking for a nice seaside nursing home for her. How old is she? Ninety? Glad she was bumped from behind. That's the general concensus on how taxpayers feel with these incompetent politicians in charge. Hang it up Helen. Term limits for all politicians.
Just who is this character Dan Andrews? He's been hanging around Borough Hall for a helluva long time.
She looks so vacant and stupid in this photo.
In fact, she always looks vacant and stupid.
Was she sent for a brain scan?
