Suspect in deadly NYC crash yet to surrender; $15,000 reward offered
Police worked through the night searching for a man suspected of driving the car that killed a pregnant woman, her husband and ultimately their child in a wreckage-strewn crash as members of their community offered a $15,000 reward.
Police on Tuesday said they’d had no contact with Julio Acevedo, 44, and early Wednesday he’d still not turned himself in although a friend said he planned to surrender.
“We are still looking to apprehend him,” police spokesman Paul Browne said. “We have no information that he is going to surrender.”
Acevedo told the Daily News of New York Tuesday that he was speeding away from a gunman who was trying to shoot at him early Sunday when the accident with a hired car happened in Williamsburg.
