Of the 9 victims injured in Monday's U-Haul rampage in Brooklyn, one died from his injuries. Family and friends say the 44-year-old was a single father, working as a delivery driver to provide for his children. ChristinaFanTV spoke to his grieving family.
Witness:"Just kind of recklessly driving and hitting, running over people"Police say an NYPD patrol car was able to cut off the U-Haul, sending the truck onto the sidewalk, and forcing the suspect to surrender. Surveillance video shows how the driver radically made his way through Brooklyn Monday morning, knocking out a bike and hopping onto the sidewalk as a pedestrian runs out of the way.
The NYPD says just before 11 a.m., officers responded to a man driving U-Haul truck in Bay Ridge. At least eight people were struck in seven different locations before the NYPD ended the violent rampage at Columbia Street and Hamilton Avenue. Sources say he has no criminal record in the city, but the NYPD did interact with him in July 2019 in response to an emotionally disturbed person call in Queens. He was allegedly jumping around in traffic.
