Ten people were injured Sunday when a woman on a three-wheel motorcycle plowed through a Brooklyn park, striking several pedestrians in her path, according to authorities.

Emergency responders rushed to the crash site near Flushing Avenue and Navy Street and transported the nine pedestrians and the motorcycle driver to local hospitals, police said.

Four of the 10 injured are in critical, but stable condition. The remaining six people are listed as stable, cops added.

Photos of the aftermath captured debris littered around the three-wheeler as officers and shocked bystanders swarmed the scene.
