Port Authority Bus Terminal entrance in New York City.

AT least 12 people have been hurt in a massive multi-bus crash outside a buzzing New York City terminal in the middle of the morning rush hour.

Two coach buses smashed into each other around 6 am Wednesday morning, causing a pile-up that completely shut down traffic, fire officials say.

The wreck took place near West 41st Street near the Port Authority Bus Terminal in midtown Manhattan, WNBC reported.

First responders raced to the scene to help the injured victims get out of the mangled buses and rushed one commuter to the hospital to be assessed.

The individual who was injured sustained “moderate” damage but is anticipated to recover fully. The rest of the people affected seemed to have only minor injuries, as reported by the New York City Fire Department.

One of the bus drivers may have had a medical emergency that caused the crash, sources told the outlet.
