HELL'S KITCHEN — A van crashed into scaffolding set up around a Manhattan building near the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel Saturday afternoon, fire officials said.

A van smashed into scaffolding at 501 West 38th St. at 1:04 p.m. a, a spokesman for the FDNY said.

One person suffered from minor injuries, but had not been immediately sent to the hospital, the spokesman said.

It was unclear if the crash caused any delays at the Lincoln Tunnel, which has an entrance near the intersection.
