Three people sustained injuries Tuesday after a man who claimed Google was
trying to "harass, harm and torture" him crashed his vehicle into a building
close to the tech giant's New York City headquarters, police said.

A spokesperson for the NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Public Information’s office
told FOX Business that police took the alleged driver, identified as local Jason
Bitton, 34, into custody after getting called to the incident at 15th St. and
10th Ave., an intersection in the Chelsea neighborhood that is located a short
walk from where Google has one of its offices. A 12-year-old girl and two women,
ages 47 and 50, were injured, according to the NYPD.

The car, a Ford Fusion, struck them after it entered the sidewalk, the NYPD
spokesperson said. It then collided with a building.

The New York Post reported that Bitton, the alleged driver, sued Google about
four years ago, filing the complaint in the Kings County Supreme Court in 2019.

That lawsuit sought billions of dollars in damages from Google. It alleged that
extreme "flashing" on his Android products "caused personal injury" like
migraines, vision loss and photophobia, and claimed that Google was trying to
"harass, harm and torture" him, according to the complaint. 



Google did not respond to FOX Business' multiple requests for comment.

In connection with the crash, the man faces nine total counts, including three
for attempted assault and for attempted reckless endangerment, according to the
NYPD spokesperson. The other three are for alleged reckless driving.
