A New York woman deliberately drove her SUV onto a Brooklyn sidewalk, killed a 70 year-old woman and stood laughing as her victim died, it is claimed.
Layla Adredini, 30, was driving her Ford Explorer in Brownsville near Thomas Boyland and Pacific streets at around 8.30pm on August 24 when she struck 70-year-old Brenda Whidbee who was sitting on the steps of her apartment building, it is alleged. Adredini was charged with murder on Wednesday.
A 50-year-old man, who remains unidentified, was also hit as a result of the crash only suffered minor injuries, and had left by the time police had arrived.
Adredine is said to have deliberately driven the SUV at that man, only to miss her intended target and instead hit Whidbee.
Adredini allegedly attempted to hide in nearby building but was caught by neighbors who then turned her over to the police, and is said to have laughed as Whidbee lay dying just feet away.
'She (Adredini) was in the building smiling, laughing about it while this lady was down here dying with her grandkids outside, her daughter outside,'
