Longtime NBC news anchor Tom Brokaw and his wife Meredith were virtually unscathed in a three-car accident in New York City that resulted in a 30-year-old woman being killed, and  a truck driver being injured.

The police and the Brokaws say a 1998 Ford Expedition lost control on a New York highway, smashed into a mail truck, and the driver, a woman named Suejas Estrada, was thrown from her SUV and died on the scene. 

The out-of-control Expedition caused the mail truck to collide with Brokaw’s car. The truck driver was left with bruises and bumps, and treated for trauma.

The Brokaws, who were not injured, issued a statement in which they said they were “greatly saddened by this loss of life.”
