Man finds remains of his car


From WPIX:

A Queens man who lost his car for a week while it was covered by heavy snow from last week's blizzard, finally found it -- crushed and ripped apart -- right where he had parked it.

Miguel Mena lives in Queens but had parked his car near his job in the Mapleton section of Brooklyn. When he couldn't find it he assumed it had been towed during the storm, but after checking impound lots his 1995 Nissan Altima didn't turn up.

After much of the snow melted, Mena decided to check Bay Parkway where he parked, and found his car -- shredded to pieces. Miguel believes his Altima was ripped apart by plows and crushed under the tons of snow, dumped on Bay Parkway.

As Eyewitness News pointed out, the taxpayers will bear the burden of the cost of these atrocities!

Wouldn't it be hoot if this handiwork was done by the same DOS operator who got his payloader towed out in last week's infamous video of vehicular destruction.

Sorry Crapper, I have lived here all my 42 years, aside from my time in the Marine Corps, and I don't remember ever hearing the name. I thought it might be a gentrification-geared neighborhood renaming.
