People gathered Monday in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, for a vigil in honor of the victims of last week's U-Haul truck rampage. Christinafantv reports.
The violent rampage started last Monday. In many cases, the victims were working class immigrants, delivery workers, and one was on his way to do his taxes.
While most walked away with broken bones, 44-year-old Yijie Ye did not survive. Another, Mohammed Rakchi, is still hospitalized with severe head trauma. "It's really hard. My kids keep asking where's dad. I'm really confused. I really don't know what to say," said Rakchi's wife, Nadjet Tchenar. "While this may not have been a coordinated terrorist attack, it was an act of terror. It left a trail of terror through our neighborhood. It was harrowing. Anumber of people are still on edge about it," Councilman Justin Brannan said., but Ye's family says no sentence will ever bring back the 44-year-old single father, who leaves behind three children.
