The driver of a Lamborghini who went through Times Square on Tuesday night could be in big trouble, the New York Police Department says — that is, if the NYPD can find them.
An August 5th incident involving a blue Lamborghini Urus and an injured officer of the New York Police Department has led to the opening of an investigation into the driver of the 657-hp performance SUV, according to police. A video clip circulating around X started gaining traction earlier this morning, showing what appears an NYPD officer attempting to stop a group of streamers inside a Lamborghini Urus near Times Square; now, we have law enforcement's side of the story.
"On Tuesday, August 5, 2025, at approximately 2219 hours, police responded to a reckless driver in the vicinity of West 44 Street and 7th Avenue, within the confines of the Midtown South Precinct. Officers observed a blue Lamborghini, operated by an unknown individual, strike a pedicab and flee the location. The Lamborghini proceeded to strike a uniformed police officer, causing minor injuries to the officer’s foot. The officer was transported to a local area hospital in stable condition. There are no arrests at this time and the investigation is ongoing," the NYPD's deputy commissioner of public information told to Road & Track.
Clips from a Kick streamer who goes by "Shangel" posted on the evening of August 5 appear to show an alternate angle of the Times Square incident. The minute-long clip is focused primarily on Shangel's face, but the backseat passenger does pan the camera forward to reveal the interior of a Lamborghini Urus, as well as the blinding lights of Times Square. Analysis of the original angle video on X confirms Shangel's presence, and has matching dialogue between vehicle occupants.
Statements from the NYPD indicate that the driver of the Urus has managed to evade law enforcement officials as of this story's publication. As a result, we suspect that the driver of this blue Lamborghini will be laying low for the foreseeable future.
