Yorktown resident Ann Marie Ciarcia was charged with DWI after a car crash on Monday morning that left her daughter's friend dead. Ciarcia and her 15 year old daughter Alexa had attended a show at the Continental Club in the East Village Sunday night. They ran into Alexa's friend, Emily Cornish (who had been at the Save Darfur rally earlier in the day) and gave Cornish a ride back to Yorktown with them. Ciarcia was driving north on a southbound lane on the Saw MIll River Parkway when she hit another car. Cornish, sitting in the back without a seatbelt on, was killed, while Ciarcia and Alexa - wearing seatbelts - were injured.

Above is a video explaining why this event is taking place, and inviting everyone to come out to Central Park today.

The weekend is here, and unfortunately our run of nice weather has run out. The rains will be coming. Luckily the city is prepared with plenty of indoor activities to enjoy, and if you're not scared of getting a little wet there is some outdoor fun to be had as well.
