May God bless and protect their son and grant the driver taking them to the hospital a full recovery.

May those who fled the scene of the accident be found, arrested, tried and convicted. They need a prison sentence to atone for their grievous misdeed.

“Bonfire of the Vanities.”

NYPD has probably already traced the registration of the BMW to the drunk-ass hipster who was behind the wheel. He is so totally busted.

Man that’s just tragic on so many levels. Thoughts go out to their family and other loved ones.

Hipsters ride bikes. This is probably a run-of-the-mill douchebag

I sometimes suffer transient depression from bad luck; but nowhere near the fate of these very unfortunate people.

Don’t know who it was, but they’ve snuffed out two people who were on the cusp of being parents and bringing a new life into the world. The only saving grace is that the baby was born alive, and that there’s an entire community who will come together to care for the baby boy.

The driver of the other vehicle should suffer all the pains and hurt in the world. The law can mete out only so much, but it will have to do.

The entire community came out to grieve - the funeral was held in the street as thousands came to mourn the loss of the family.

The NYPD is still searching for the driver.

The baby will be cared for by his grandparents, Miller reported.

“As of last night I heard the baby was alive on a respirator,” said a neighbor who lives next door to Raizy Glauber’s parents. “The shock is too, too overwhelming.”

Added Abraham: “Children go to the grave of their parents. Parents don’t go to funerals of children. And here we’re going to have two sets of parents going.”

Raizy Glauber was mourned for her kindness, Nathan Glauber for his generosity.

“Always soft spoken quiet person never hurt a soul,” Gluck described her cousin. “Always doing favors for everybody.”

Family members said Nathan Gluber’s mother had just had a baby too. They said they know he would have made an amazing father because he tended to his mother during her pregnancy the way he took care of his wife.

Damn… Just damn…

I have been following this story here. Police have found the owner of the BMW who apparently has an alibi, someone else was driving the vehicle. Police are not saying if the vehicle was stolen.

This is just awful.

Chances the owner of the car says the car was stolen and he had nothing to do with this accident: 100%

Chances the owner filed a police report for his “stolen” car: 0%

Because if you owned a 2010 BMW you would totally not notice it was stolen because you were driving one of your other 10 cars!

Sadly, this probably means it was the owner’s kid.

God, how horrible. And sad. It just… you just never know.

So glad the baby survived. I read that he’s in serious condition, but expected to survive. The little guy got a hell of a tough start in life. May he overcome his injuries, grow up to be healthy & strong, and live long & well.

I have been reading the comments over at VosIzNeias.com, some of them are really nutty as you might expect from a fervently religious community:

“This is our fault because of Weberman being a child molester and we didn’t stop him!”

“This is our fault because we don’t give enough charity!”

“This is our fault because women and girls don’t dress modestly!”

It’s all bullshit, these people are in grief, there are only two reasons this tragedy happened:

1. DRUNK DRIVING. They are the innocent victims of a DRUNK DRIVER who even now is being protected. If anybody is at fault here it is the DRUNK DRIVER.

2. SEAT BELTS. I realize that nobody wears seat belts in the back seat of a cab, whether it is a livery or a metered cab. Maybe now people will buckle up. There was no hope for the father, he was crushed when the BMW broadsided. The mother was thrown from the vehicle, if she had been wearing a seat belt she might have survived. The cab driver was seat-belted and airbagged and survived.

I am reminded of Baby Moshe from Mumbai.

I am reminded of Baby Moshe from Mumbai.

Indeed. The last I heard, he was living in Israel and is a happy, well adjusted kid. I hope & pray he has no memory of witnessing his parents’ murder.

I always nag my wife when we’re in a cab or car service to put her seat-belt on. Partially it’s selfish: I don’t want to lose her.

If this tragedy accomplishes anything, it should at least raise awareness of fastening a seat belt if you’re a cab passenger.

BTW I like the Israel flag avatar that Gus created for you. :)

Goddamn it. One day a family, the next day just a storm of grief, expanding.

Cops identifed the driver in a Williamsburg hit-and-run that left a young couple and their newborn son dead.

Police were searching for Julio Acevedo, 44, in the horrific crash that killed Nachman and Raizel Glauber as they were driving to a Brooklyn hospital.

I have no words.
