An alleged drunk driver slammed into the famed arch at Washington Square Park early Sunday — injuring an NYPD officer who was parked under the landmark, law enforcement sources said. Both the officer and the driver suffered non-life-threatening head injuries in the dramatic crash, sources said. The officer’s back and neck were also hurt, sources said. The driver was left unharmed enough to stumble from his wreck, blood dripping from his nose, and shout “Suck my d—” at a New York Post photographer. But while the driver’s Nissan Maxima was totaled, the officer’s vehicle — a subcompact “Smart Car” — was relatively unscathed. And the Nineteenth Century marble arch was undamaged. The crash happened on the north end of the Greenwich Village park just before 2 a.m.

The owner of a barbecue restaurant in Canada remained open during the coronavirus pandemic, and defied government lockdown orders. Adam Skelly, the owner of Adamson Barbecue in Etobicoke, was arrested on Thursday and dragged away in handcuffs in front of a crowd that gathered to show support of his defiance of coronavirus. After allegedly being detained for over 30 hours, Skelly was released on $50,000 bail. Skelly claims that one of the conditions for release was that he is not permitted to use social media. Toronto Police Supt. Dom Sinopoli justified Skelly's arrest by saying, "We have formed a baseline as to how Mr. Skelly chooses to operate. We have now cautioned him up until today that our enforcement will progress and it did." Skelly's next court appearance will be on Jan. 4.
