A 23-year-old recent Brooklyn College graduate named Arrianna Arregui was killed when the car she was riding in, driven by Anthony Dickson, 34, flipped on New York City’s Grand Central Parkway around 4 a.m. Sunday morning. Police charged Dickson with vehicular manslaughter and driving while ability impaired; he was allegedly under the influence of drugs or alcohol but specific details were not confirmed by police. Five people were in the car at the time, all from Brooklyn and heading home after a birthday party. Four survived, including three women who sustained minor injuries. Arregui’s father expressed his profound grief over her death.
