New Music: Peabo Bryson – Looking for Sade
RYE BROOK, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — A big rig was ripped apart with more than half its metal exterior torn off when a driver tried to squeeze through a highway overpass in Westchester County. It’s a problem drivers and officials alike say is all too common, particularly on the Hutchinson River Parkway. The driver of the truck tried to hide his face on Monday as he blamed his partner, who was navigating on a smartphone instead of a commercial GPS. “He sent me down this road,” the driver exclaimed. “This was the result of him sending me down this road right here.” His partner deflected the blame back onto the driver. “He knows he made a mistake,” said Cardell Talton of Atlas Moving. “As a driver you go to school for stuff like this, you should know what signs to look for to know we shouldn’t be on this road.” The men were driving a moving truck from Delaware to Connecticut when they struck the King Street Bridge. A sign says the clearance is nine feet, six inches, but the truck the men were in stands more than 11 feet tall. “It was very loud, bumping up in the air,” said Talton. “Hit my head on the ceiling.” The roof of the truck peeled open like a sardine can. Pieces struck a passenger vehicle driven by a Connecticut woman. She was taken to the hospital with minor injuries. Every Parkway entrance has signs advising “Passenger Cars Only.” Some points also have detection systems to alert drivers if they’re over-height. Still, trucks repeatedly wander onto the Hutch where they strike bridges and snarl traffic. It’s happened in the Bronx on June 27th and in Pelham on June 12th. Westchester County Executive George Latimer says enough is enough, and is holding a summit on Friday. He says he’ll be demanding action from the trucking industry and the state Department of Transportation. “It’s not one thing that we need to do,” said Latimer. “It’s multiple things that we need to do because there are multiple reasons why drivers miss what information is out there already.” Charges against the driver were still pending late Monday, while his employer faced a big bill. A tow truck company owner tells CBS2’s Tony Aiello the average cost for removing a truck from a scene similar to Monday’s is around $30,000.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Police are looking for man who they said exposed himself to a young mother and her 6-month-old daughter on a Manhattan subway train. The incident occurred Friday on a northbound D train near 53rd Street and Seventh Avenue. The 21-year-old woman took her daughter and tried to get away from the man after he exposed himself, police said. The woman and her daughter moved to a different spot on the train, but police said the suspect followed them. He tried to look up the woman’s skirt while making several comments about how beautiful the child was and kept asking for the little girl’s name, police said. The woman was able to take a picture of the suspect before getting off the train. Police said they are also looking for another man in connection with a separate incident that occurred on the subway on Sept. 10. In that case, a 34-year-old woman took a picture of a man “performing a lewd act” on a northbound No. 1 train near Seventh Avenue and West 42nd Street, police said. Police said a woman took a picture of this man who was allegedly “performing a lewd act” on the 1 train. (credit: NYPD) Police have released pictures of both suspects. Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS, log onto the Crime Stoppers website , or text tips to 274637 (CRIMES) and enter TIP577.

http://media.newyork.cbslocal.com/CBSNY_20150526180708057AA.mp4 CENTEREACH, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — A bizarre lawsuit on Long Island will have parents thinking twice about what they pack in their children’s lunch. As CBS2’s Jennifer McLogan reported, a junior at Centereach High School is fighting his punishment, after getting disciplined for taking hot peppers to school. Nick Lien and his mother spoke exclusively to McLogan about the incident involving bhut jolokia – or ghost peppers — which are among the hottest chili peppers on the planet. Ghost peppers pack 400 times the mouth-numbing heat of Tabasco, and Lien orders them online – three peppers for $12. “My friends saw that I had the new ghost pepper with me, and they all wanted to see how spicy it really was, because everybody thought that basically they could handle it and it was nothing,” Lien said. “So they all tried a piece.” But two of Lien’s classmates left gym class, and landed in the nurse’s office with red faces, stomach pains, and burning tongues. And the next thing he knew, Lien was called to the carpet. “I was shocked, because I didn’t realize that giving someone a pepper could get me into as much trouble as I was in,” Lien said. Lien said he was told he was to serve after-school detention for two days, or else in-school suspension for a day. Nick Lien’s mother, Sharon Lien, also received a call. “I ran to the school to wonder why. I didn’t know what it was,” she said. “I asked if it was pepper spray, peppers on sandwiches, and she said it was my son brought a pepper to school – which I happen to have. We eat hot peppers, so it’s, like, no big deal.” Ads for ghost peppers said they will “knock your socks off.” The fad has spread to ghost pepper fast food fries, chili, and burgers. “I eat hot food. My family eats hot food,” Sharon Lein said. “It’s just in our blood.” And the Liens were shocked and mystified when they said the school likened the peppers to psychedelic drugs. “I was told that it’s equivalent to giving someone LSD,” Nick Lien said. The Liens do not believe passing out peppers warrants suspension or detention. “Students’ rights cannot be violated by dictating to them what they can and can’t bring in for lunch, so it’s an outage,” said attorney Ken Mollins. School is out in three weeks, and Nick Lien said being suspended would be detrimental. “All the work that we have now is all getting bunched together, and if I lose two days of school, then it’s really going to affect my grades,” he said. But the superintendent of the Middle Country School District said she does not tolerate any action that compromises the health of their students, and said she has determined that the hot peppers do pose such a threat. She said she stands by the detention. There are no New York state regulations yet on ghost peppers in schools.
