There was a fatal freak accident outside of 115 – 96th Street (off Shore Road)

The street was filled with emergency response vehicles and police officers. 

While people speculated that the accident was due to a speeding vehicle because of what they saw on the Citizen App, Councilman Brannan shared the truth and it’s so sad.

Alba Mazza, an 88-year-old resident stopped her car to get out and open the garage door.  She forgot to put the car in park. The car rolled down the ramp and she was trapped under her vehicle. When the police arrived, she was in cardiac arrest. She was transported to NYU Lutheran Hospital and died.  

Alba was a well-known musician, taught music and was a vocal coach. She coached  singers for Italian-American Organizations. See here

RIP. Prayers for the Alba’s family. She has one daughter who spoke to The Daily News. See here.

Adam West has a video here outside of the apartment building.

There was another accident earlier today in Bay Ridge on 100th Street and 4th Avenue.
