Pedestrian Hit on Ocean Parkway at Brighton Beach Ave

12:18 PM EDT on October 8, 2008

Flickr pool contributor Mazaev has posted photos of the aftermath of a Monday vehicle-pedestrian collision on Ocean Parkway at Brighton Beach Avenue in Brooklyn. According to Mazaev, the victim, a woman, was hit and killed by an SUV. We could find no media reports of the incident -- though there was a hit-and-run on Ocean Parkway last night. If anyone knows anything, please share in comments.

A photo from the scene appears after the jump. Warning: it's an unsettling image.
