Police say a driver trying to parallel park on a New York City street lost control of his minivan and struck several pedestrians, killing one person and injuring six others.

It happened shortly before 7 p.m. Monday in Manhattan's Chinatown.

Police say the injured pedestrians were hospitalized, including one in critical condition, AP reports.
