A two-vehicle accident occurred last night between a SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority) bus and DRPA (Delaware River Port Authority) vehicle. The DRPA vehicle was traveling westbound on Spruce when it collided with the SEPTA bus traveling northbound on 16th Street. The two then crashed into Tom Peters’ Monk’s Cafe.
Peters, who lives in one of the apartments above his restaurant, said he was awoken by the accident to see a cloud of dust and the bus partially inside his restaurant. All apartment residents were evacuated from the building and fortunately, none were injured.
The two drivers involved in the accident were transported to Jefferson Hospital to be treated for non-life threatening injuries.
