BROOKLYN [WABC] — A horrific triple fatal crash on Interstate 80 outside Pittsburgh, Pa., killed a 10-year-old boy and a woman, both from Brooklyn, and left the boy’s father fighting for his life.
The Brooklyn residents were in a van struck by an out of control tractor trailer last night on Interstate 80 in Clintonville, where state police said freezing rain created poor driving conditions.
Police say 20-year-old Pasha Azulay, described as a newlywed, and 10-year-old Avrohom Dovid Liberow, both of Brooklyn, were killed. The driver of their van, 45-year-old Shneur Liberow, was critically injured.
Liberow, a rabbi at a Flatbush synagogue, was the dead boy’s father. His wife and three other girls in his van, ages 17, 11, and 2 sustained less serious injuires.
A third person, 66-year-old Thomas Munsell of Ann Arbor, Mich., was also killed in the wreck.
The bodies of the Brooklyn victims were released by the local coroner will be brought to Liberow’s synagogue for services later today.
The crash involved multiple tractor-trailers and other vehicles and may have been caused by the weather.
The eastbound lanes were closed for seven miles between the Clintonville and Emlenton exits.

A WARNING about I-80 in PENN
HaShem should help – Moshiach Now!!
For future reference and shmiras hanefesh –
The area of I-80 in Pennsylvania is horrific when snowing and has many patches of ice throughout. I have travelled it many, many times from NY to Michigan and have seen first hand horrible accidents there – especially involving these large trucks flipping over.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!! Pull over or fly until the roads are COMPLETELY clear. It is truly a SAKANA!

Dear Hashem
You did it again
You haven’t even waited
till we recuperated
from yesterdays tragedies
and this morning’s calamities
weve cried our hearts out
we have no more words to shout
You’re hitting too hard
we’re torn apart
we don’t feel Your love-
just anger from above
were so helpless and insecure
you took away the young and pure
we have no more strength to continue
our worst nightmares are coming true
we demand with every fiber of our bodies:
stop these terrible decrees!
we can take it no longer
our desperation is growing stronger
we’re so afraid and alone
please, take us back home!
LASHON HARAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOSHON HORAH IS THE VERY START OF ALL THE PROBLEMS – ENCOURAGING SINAS CHINAM!
When Loshon Harah abounds, all the fighting and JUDGING others Negativly thrives!
