Early yesterday morning, the driver of a minivan was killed when a drunk driver crashed into him near in lower Manhattan. The Daily News has details on the terrible crash: Around 4:41 a.m., Long Island resident Brandon Connelly's "2005 Audi hit a Chevy Tahoe on the southbound lanes of the FDR Drive on the lower East Side. As the SUV smashed into a concrete barrier, the Audi bounced off - only to crash into a minivan near the Brooklyn Bridge exit." The minivan's 50-something driver died at Bellevue and four of his passengers had minor injuries. Connelly was charged with vehicular manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, and DWI.

how fast was he going?
But the drunk killer survived? You missed that one, Lord.
In all the reports I've ever seen about drunk-driving accidents, the drunk driver almost always lives or escapes serious harm. Not only is it tragically unfair, it seems pretty darn improbable too.
I think I've seen the aftermath of the 3 vehicles involved. They were removed to the foot of the Manhattan Bridge and have been there for weeks. I've never seen anything like it. I wonder why they were moved there?
