Limousine driver blamed for crash that injured two in Glens Falls
GLENS FALLS — The crash happened in a blink of an eye, a driver blew through a stop sign on Warren Street, hitting a Cadillac Escalade sport-utility vehicle in the side and flipping it over, pushing it into a parked car.
Two people were hurt, and the driver was ticketed for failing to yield the right of way at the intersection of Jay and Warren streets after the Nov. 30, 2015 crash.
Police said the driver to blame was Scott Lisinicchia, the 53-year-old Queensbury man who was driving a limousine that crashed in Schoharie County last weekend, killing Lisinicchia and 19 others.
Lisinicchia lacked the proper commercial driver’s license and the limousine he was driving had failed inspection at the time of the fatal crash. Weeks before the crash, State Police had stopped him in the limousine and warned him it should not be on the road, and he could not legally drive it, according to a report in the Albany Times-Union.
The man who had been running the limousine company, Nauman Hussain of Cohoes, was charged Wednesday with criminally negligent homicide.
A friend of one of the drivers whose vehicles were damaged by Lisinicchia notified The Post-Star of the 2015 crash, saying the public needed to know about his driving history and that he had caused a crash years earlier by going through a stop sign in the same manner as in Schoharie.
