    A Jersey City man was arrested on DUI charges after a collision that injured five people yesterday morning outside Radio City Music Hall.

    Imran Ahmed, 27, was traveling traveling north in his Mercedes on 6th Avenue at a very high speed around 4:45 a.m. when he allegedly ran a red light at the corner of 50th Street, police said, and rammed into an airport shuttle van.

    The collision sent both vehicles spinning right in front of Radio City.

    The van's driver and his three passengers were taken to Bellevue and New York Presbyterian hospitals for minor injuries.

    It was not known where the van was heading to or if the passengers were tourists, the police said.

    Several tourists were walking in the area at the time of the wreck but none were hurt, according to police.
