Some New Yorkers might say they've seen it all. Bizarre things happen in the city that never sleeps, and sometimes they happen twice. For the second time in three months, a shopping cart pitched off a high ledge has critically injured someone.

The latest incident happened Monday at a Home Depot store in the Bronx, where a customer is more likely to suffer injuries at a self-service cutting station or from a fall on a slippery floor. Two men were walking along a road between the store and an adjacent parking garage when the cart came from out of the sky and crashed down on their heads. A store cashier heard a loud thud and rushed outside to find both men lying on the ground. The overturned cart that lay nearby was from a Toys R Us store.

Both men, ages 30 and 52, were rushed to the hospital with serious head injuries. No one saw the shopping cart pushed from the second story of the parking garage and police have no suspects.

The incident was eerily similar to the assault on a woman outside a Harlem Target store in October. She was hit in the head by a shopping cart that two boys had pushed off a parking garage walkway. The Manhattan woman suffered a severe brain injury that will require extensive rehabilitation.

The two 12-year-old boys confessed to the prank and later pleaded guilty to felony assault charges. If the person who pushed the second cart that injured the two men is found, he or she will not only face criminal charges, but could be held liable for the men's medical expenses, in addition to other damages.

If you think you've seen it all, be sure to keep your head up. Whatever falls may come down again.
