A speeding driver with a suspended license caused a chain-reaction crash that killed a “darling” and ambitious 14-year-old boy around the corner from his Brooklyn home over the weekend, cops said.

Teen Christian Antoine was crossing the street at the intersection of East 81st Street and Glenwood Road in Canarsie around 6:15 p.m. Saturday when reckless Mercedes driver Rayan K. Salmon, 45, allegedly crashed into him, police said.

Salmon first struck the front left fender of another vehicle – which caused his ride to spin clockwise and hit the teen pedestrian, cops said.

aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle?? I am guessing they bailed out already?

Will the New York Police be charged with arresting this vermin?

[Does so]

...and drove home in the same car...

But which degree of aggravated unlicensed?

Interesting that the info is left out of the article.

Rayan K. Salmon, ... yep, just as one suspects.

[mewzilla]

If they’re charging the perp with first degree aggravated unlicensed, then then LE is familiar with the perp, aren’t they...

He’ll be outta jail by 5pm.

Too bad it was not one of Gotti’s sons.

A handsome child. RIP, and may the family get justice, even in NY.
