MIDTOWN — An collision between a luxury car and an airport shuttle filled with passengers left five suffering with injuries early Sunday morning, police said.

The incident occurred at 4:45 a.m., when the shuttle, headed northbound on Sixth Avenue, and a Mercedes, headed eastbound on E. 50th Street near Radio City Music Hall, smashed into one another, police said. 

Victims were left sprawling in the roadway, with some pinned underneath one of the vehicles, the NY Post reported.

All five victims were rushed to Bellevue Hospital, police said, and none of them were likely to die, but police continued to investigate the crash scene Sunday.

It was unclear how the accident occurred, police said.
