OT - Victim of Car Incident at Times Square was an 18 Year Old Woman from Michigan
This is absolutely heartbreaking. As many of you may know, a man drove a car into a crowd at Times Square at around noon today. There was one immediate victim of the incident; a young woman.
That woman has now been identified as Alyssa Elsman, who graduated from high school in Portage, Michigan just last year.
RIP Alyssa.

EDIT: Changing the title to reflect uncertainty about what precisely happened. Whether it was purposeful or not, though, a woman who apparently many MGoBloggers knew is now deceased. Please be respectful.
The guy had 2 previous incidents. I've been saying it for years, the laws on driving impaired need to be more strict. Until somebody somewhere steps up and says this is unacceptable and actually makes a change, this kind of garbage will still happen.
