9 movie crew members hurt in NY car crash near set

NEW YORK (AP) - May 6, 2009 It's the second accident this week involving the film "The Sorcerer's Apprentice." The most recent happened about 3:28 a.m. Wednesday.

The SUV's driver says she tried to avoid hitting a taxi and instead struck a parked car. Police say both vehicles jumped the curb where crew members were sitting under a marquee. All but two have been released from hospitals.

Early Monday, a stunt driver apparently lost control of a Ferrari during filming of a chase scene. Two bystanders were injured when the car plowed into a restaurant just blocks away from Wednesday's accident scene.
