A little after midnight on Monday, a car accident near the Brooklyn Navy Yard resulted in the death of two passengers, a mother and her young daughter, according to police reports. Police believe that the two were on their way home from Long Island College Hospital. The accident occurred when a grey 2010 BMW sedan hit the driver’s side of a black livery cab. According to a law enforcement source, witnesses said the BMW was speeding. The woman in the backseat of the cab was thrown from the vehicle on impact, police said. Police sources noted that there is a stop sign on Wilson Street at Kent Avenue, but none on Kent Avenue. The cab was traveling westbound on Wilson Street, and the BMW was traveling northbound on Kent Avenue. The occupants of the BMW reportedly jumped out of their car and ran away. Police said witnesses reported that the driver was male and the passenger was female. The driver of the livery cab was taken to Bellevue Hospital and is in stable condition. The two in the backseat were pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. The woman was taken to Beth Israel and the child was taken to Bellevue. The toddlers parents, Nathan Gluber and Raizi Gluber, were 21 years old. *Names are the hebrew names of Amber and her husband.
