Tragic wreck kills two children and critically injures Broadway actress

[Weatherman2020]

An out-of-control driver blew through a red light Monday, fatally hitting two children at a Brooklyn street corner — dragging one kid’s stroller more than 350 feet.

Four-year-old Abigail Blumenstein and 1-year-old Joshua Lew were with their mothers, Lauren Lew and Ruthie Ann Blumenstein, at Ninth St. and Fifth Ave. in Park Slope when they were struck about 12:40 p.m.

Witnesses said Blumenstein, a Tony-winning theater actress whose stage name is Ruthie Ann Miles, was pregnant and critically hurt. Lew was also injured.

Brooklyn driver runs red light, kills two children

No drunk driver involved, just some middle-aged woman who apparently has done shit like this repeatedly - but this is the first time she's taken lives. I absolutely believe that her license should be permanently revoked, and she should do time.

Leftists love to keep criminals on the street to create more mayhem.

Now you're making this a political issue? Seriously? What is wrong with you?

Those kids are dead because of leftist policies of being soft on crime.
The left have a lot of blood on their hands.

Sad. You are a very sad excuse for a human being.

You cannot compare cars to guns. Cars and other items RWrs try to use in the gun debate are everyday items we use; they have a purpose, a non violent purpose. Guns have only one purpose. To kill. If a gun is used in a robbery but the assailant doesn't kill, that doesn't mean the purpose isn't to kill. It's not like it has any other purpose or reason for being. It's killing or it's threatening to kill.

It's just impossible for you people to think logically. The purpose of any gun is to allow the gun handler to be violent. It has no other purpose. It is not like other ordinary items we use in daily life. Learn to think.

Rightists make sure they have assault weapons.

If they would have banned cars this would not of happened...

If you had a measurable IQ you would stop making idiotic posts. You don`t so you won`t.

No one has a right to vehicle ownership it’s a privilege, firearm ownership is an absolute right less someone fucks it up for themselves. Live with it bed wetter

The driver hasn't been charged; police are looking into her medical history and driving record. A law enforcement official said authorities tested the driver and she was not drunk at the time. The official was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.


Witness Debbie LaSalle was crossing the same intersection when she saw the Volvo speed by, she told the Daily News.

"It was horrible to watch," LaSalle, 44, said. "I'm still in shock. The white car was going really fast. The pregnant mother was face-down and the baby flew into the street. She dragged the stroller and . the other baby was pinned under the car."

Tony-award winning actress injured; daughter killed in wreck

The more I read about it (STAHP ALREADY!) the sicker I get. This isn't going to be an easy incident for anybody to get past.

Plus from an article I read this morning, this corner is KNOWN to be a hazard. Like somebody said, three cars ran a red light with the cops standing right there after the accident! No clue what the answer is, if lights aren't enough of a deterrent. Maybe cameras, huge fines for the runners, and media getting the word out?

Dunno.

No one has a right to vehicle ownership, ban them...

Some cars arent street legal, regardless of who owns them.
Rush hour & road rage driving a formula one, or a monster truck.
