Bronx Man, 33, Arrested in Connection with Sprain Brook Crash in Greenburgh

Bronx resident Larry A. Burnham, 33, was arrested on misdemeanor reckless endangerment charges Sunday in connection with a four-car accident on the Sprain Brook Parkway in Greenburgh, according to state police.

Burnham’s alleged erratic driving caused the accident, police said, and there was a child under the age of 17 in the front seat of the car at the time.

Whether any injuries were caused by the crash was not reported, but state police said Burnham’s driving “created a substantial risk of serious injury to the occupants of the three vehicles he struck.”

Below is the state police press release about the arrest:

The arrest stemmed from an accident investigation that occurred on the northbound side of the Sprain Brook Parkway.
