## Resource

A heartbreaking tragedy unfolded in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, when a 79-year-old woman, known to neighbors as “Miss Yvette,” was fatally struck by a Lexus attempting a dangerous right turn. The driver, in her sixties, jumped the curb, hit a planter, then slammed into the pedestrian—trapping her against a building. Despite immediate response, she died at the scene. Loved by her community and active in her church, Miss Yvette’s loss has left neighbors grieving. The driver stayed at the scene, and while authorities investigate, no charges have been filed yet. This intersection, long flagged for speeding and risky maneuvers, remains a haunting reminder of how quickly lives can be lost on the road.
