Bad Car Accident in Brooklyn

2005_04_buscrash.jpg

A crazy, unfortunate chain of events caused four car accidents and a woman's death in Brooklyn yesterday morning. First, a minivan hit an eldery woman crossing Avenue N at Ocean Avenue; the woman had non-life-threatening injuries. Then an SUV slowed down as it approached the scene. A mini-school bus rearended the SUV. Then another car crashed into the mini-bus, which swerved onto the sidewalk to avoid hitting other people, and ended up pinning a 25 year-old woman to the wall and killing her! Neighbors say that intersection always has accidents. And so far, the police haven't issued any summons.
