We’re learning more about the crash that claimed the life of a six-year-old girl in Brooklyn Center Thursday afternoon.
As family, friends, and neighbors mourn her loss, her cousin remains hospitalized, recovering from the crash.
Investigators are still working to piece together exactly what happened when a car struck the mini-bike the children were riding in the street.
We now know the little girl who died is six-year-old Dreme Williams, a girl her mother described as “the biggest personality you will ever find in a tiny 6 year old body (sic).”
She said Dreme was so lovable that it only took a single encounter to win you over, describing her daughter as “intelligent beyond her years, so lovable and extremely humorous. Anyone who knew Dreme knew her by her feistiness, intelligence, helping hand and just how she loved everyone.”
Her mother saw Dreme as a daddy’s girl at heart, a mama’s girl by spirit.
Dreme’s mother finished by saying, “I can go on, but we’d be here all day. Most of all, Dreme already knew and loved Jesus Christ.”
The accident happened at an uncontrolled intersection and some neighbors have said they believe there should be a stop sign there.
KSTP has asked local police about any accidents or complaints involving the intersection at 63rd Ave North and Brooklyn Drive. We’ll let you know what we learn.
As far as the accident that took Dreme’s life, police say their investigation continues. They say the driver stayed at the scene and is cooperating.
