A woman believed to be in her 30s was killed in a hit-and-run early morning in Brownsville, police said.<\/p>\n
The woman was found motionless in the street on Pitkin Avenue and Osborn Street, after being dragged for two blocks. She was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
News 12 obtained a series of surveillance videos that help piece together what happened in the minutes before the crash.<\/p>\n
Around 6:30 a.m., video shows the woman entering a bodega at Pitkin Avenue and Osborn Street. A witness said she asked for money to buy food.<\/p>\n
About 10 minutes later, surveillance footage from a camera two blocks away shows her going into a residential building on Pitkin Avenue near Mother Gaston Boulevard. Neighbors said the woman was unhoused and would often go inside to warm up.<\/p>\n
A short time later, video shows her leaving the building and walking back toward Mother Gaston Boulevard.<\/p>\n
At the intersection, she waits as cars pass, then steps into the street to cross Pitkin Avenue.<\/p>\n
At the same moment, a black SUV speeds around a white van and hits her. <\/p>\n
Video shows the woman somehow became trapped under a black sedan that was following the SUV. She was dragged for two blocks.<\/p>\n
Surveillance video from Pitkin Avenue and Osborn Street shows the woman rolling out from underneath the black sedan. The car pauses briefly, then drives away, leaving her in the roadway.<\/p>\n
Police are still working to determine who was at fault and are searching for those involved in the crash. <\/p>\n
