Pregnant woman, 32, mowed down by SUV driver after NYC fender bender on way home from Beyoncé concert: police

A 32-year-old pregnant woman was struck and dragged to her death by an SUV after getting into a late-night Brooklyn fender bender with the hit-and-run driver — who remains on the loose, police said Sunday. The tragic motorist, identified by police as Tiffany Cisuni, allegedly got out of her 2021 Toyota 4Runner to check for damage after a minor collision with a 2016 Chevy Trax at Van Buren Street and Marcus Garvey Boulevard shortly before midnight Saturday, according to police. That's when cops said the driver of the Trax gunned it and struck Cisuni from behind, dragging her before speeding away against traffic on Lafayette Avenue, a one-way street, an NYPD spokesperson said.
