A love triangle turned deadly when a woman ran over a boyfriend with her SUV in Brooklyn. Twenty-five-year-old Janine Harrington turned herself into the police for running over Jeffrey Moore, whose child Harrington is pregnant with, according to Moore's relatives. A witness said Harrington hit Moore with a Nissan Pathfinder near the Chauncey Street and Rockaway Avenue early yesterday morning. Then she ran over him and backed up to drive over Moore again.

A little more information about the fatal drunk driving incident Friday night on the Cross Bronx Expressway. The driver of a Nissan Pathfinder, Glenn Salera, fled the wreckage of his car - and his injured friend - after hitting a tractor-trailer. The tractor-trailer was moving slowly because of traffic, and Salera, who had been speeding, swerved to avoid the vehicle, but the front-passenger side was badly damaged (the Daily News has a picture showing a mangled car).

Yesterday afternoon, an Amber Alert was issued for an 8 year old boy who was sleeping in the backseat of his mother's parked Nissan Pathfinder in Inwood when the car was stolen. Luckily, Jay Polanco was found in Nassau County just a few hours later, after a driver noticed an SUV pulled over on the Northern State Parkway. The driver, 25 year old Tom Knabbe, wanted to help the female driver, but his suspicions were aroused when Michele Garneau seemed intoxicated, couldn't find the address of where she was headed to, and couldn't speak Spanish to the boy. Knabbe ended up driving Garneau and Jay to a police station for help. A Spanish speaking police officer there revealed that Jay was the missing boy in the Amber Alert.

Yesterday morning's car accident involving a man suspected of stabbing someone in Rhode Island is profoundly crazy. Joel Noonan was trying to drive away from MTA police on Lexington Avenue when his Jeep Cherokee crashed into Nissan Pathfinder near 63rd Street, hitting pedestrians, with the Pathfinder ultimately crashing into a travel office window. One woman, Eve Maria Boisbel, was hit so hard that she, as Newsday reports, was "wedged inside a black metal garbage can between the gray SUV and the storefront." In fact, the Daily News calls the trash can a "lifesaving helmet" since the Pathfinder had crashed the trash can into the store.
