Ten-year-old boy waiting for bus struck and killed by out-of-control car in Midwood
MIDWOOD — A 10-year-old boy was killed yesterday when an SUV went out of control, striking him while he was waiting for a bus on a busy Midwood thoroughfare.
On Sept. 10 at around 2:43 p.m., the driver of the gray Lexus SUV was traveling northbound on Ocean Avenue when it veered right and mounting the sidewalk at Avenue L, hitting the boy, Flatbush resident Enzo Farachio, who was standing by the bus stop. The vehicle then hit a scaffolding on Ocean Avenue.
EMS rushed Farachio, who suffered severe trauma to the neck and back, to New York Community Hospital when he was pronounced dead.
