A Queens car wash was the scene of a fatal incident that left one employee dead. Two workers who had been drying a vehicle were hit by another worker who drove into them with an SUV.
According to the Daily News, the worker "came roaring out of the cleaning tunnel at a killer speed" in a silver Jeep Cherokee. He hit Olston Kilkenny's car and pinned Felipe Alvarenga. Then the worker "kept driving - turning onto Sunrise Highway in the silver Jeep Cherokee." Alvarenga died at Franklin Hospital, while another worker who was hit is in stable condition.
The Jeep was found abandoned a few blocks away, and the police are still looking for the worker. Kilkenny said, "I think he panicked. I don't think he was trying to hurt those guys."




Do people really think when they abandon a car the police aren't able to track it and find them?
They keep calling him 'the worker'. This guy commits a heinous crime and they won't release his name? Awesome police work. Let him roam the streets and drive into other people before you let the general public know who to look out for.
Ease up. I don't think he has another car at his disposal right now. He'll try to go to ground.
As a car cleaner, this guy turned out to be a complete...wash out.
That human "buff and shine" always costs extra.
He was probably late for his shift at McDonalds. Did they check the ones in the area?
