The Staten Island teenager who was run over in a chain reaction car crash in front of her high school last week has died. Janine Brawer, 17, was taken off of her respirator on Thursday after going into a coma when she was pinned beneath a car on Luten Avenue that had been rear-ended by another vehicle. No charges have been filed against the drivers — both of whom, like Brawer, had just been dismissed from Tottenville High School. The Advance runs a full obituary on the teen, who was interested in art and had just started learning to play guitar. "We are all devastated," an uncle told the Daily News. "It still hasn't sunk in yet that Janine is gone."
