Another Accident on Empire and Kingston
Crown Heights, Brooklyn — Today, Thursday at about 4 PM, a mini van attempted to turn onto Kingston Ave from Empire and was hit by a car coming from the opposite direction.
There were some children on the street corner waiting to cross, but BH the car missed the children, and no one was hurt.

The mini van was waiting on Empire Blvd to turn onto Kingston, when a Chevy Blazer driven by a Black female came barreling down Empire and rammed straight into it, continuing pushing it, till she turned it facing the other direction.
A witness said that “She just continued accelerating after impact and was pushing him down the street”.
There was significant damage to both cars, but BH no one was injured.
A fan of G-d!
It happened right outside my window, it took the police again over an hour to get there… That’s over half an hour per block!
I was there
I was there and I watched the accident take place. The driver wasn’t “barreling down Empire” any faster then any one else ever does. Yes, she was speeding, but can anyone in their right conscieousnous say that they never speed down Empire? I think everyone needs to learn a lesson here. 4:00 pm when our children are walking home from school, getting off buses on busy corners, and crossing streets is not a time for reckless driving. Neither is ANY time.
