A runaway cab sent a pedestrian spiraling through the air before it careened into three more people on a terrifying death ride in the Bronx, new video revealed.

A 5-year-old girl and a 25-year-old man were killed, and the girl’s mother and another man were injured on Friday evening after the driver suffered a seizure and lost control of the green cab on a snowy Grand Concourse service road, police sources said.

Stomach-turning footage posted on Facebook shows the cab throw one of the victims across a median near E. 170th St. and the service road and into the adjacent roadway where he slides to the opposite curb.

“Accident happened at 170 and Grand Concourse in front of my bodega,” Facebook user Junior Papi Sanchez posted online in Spanish.

Damn. Cat was ended like that. Never saw it coming. Prime of life. Education. Hopes. Dreams. ...cancelled. Family won't even understand how he could have made it through the means streets to 25 and got snatched like that.

Some people react differently to bad news with dark humor. Not everyone is solemn and reverent as yourself

A little girl died also, your moms should have swallowed you

People die, young and old.. And they will keep on dying until the world ends. Unfortunate but death is ever present in humanity, get over it.

 

[joneblaze]

DAMN i swear at least 4 times a week i see an accident involving a cab

 

[MASTERBAKER]

No. I understand how people can have reactions to death that isn't somber in tone.

But there's a difference between that, and trying to go extreme and be "funny" or "witty"

You see it everywhere online, here and other places. A bunch of people with terrible social skills who think making a joke out of everything is most important. A race to see who is quickest to the punchline.

Death happens every day, and not every death is one I feel somber over (i don't for this one, I just have perspective), but this has video, and it's a very gruesome and sudden death that can happen to ANYONE who walks the streets anywhere.

I'm going to remember this going forward with conversations with Chitownheadbusa. Not someone to have a debate with.

Very fine points you've made.
