Police are hunting “a person of interest” in the horrific Mother’s Day mow-down of a Queens mom, law-enforcement sources told The Post on Monday.
Detectives have a photo of the man they suspect stole a heavy truck and slammed it into 49-year-old Florence Ngwu as he fled, leaving her mortally injured on the pavement outside her home Sunday morning, sources said.
As Ngwu lay dying on the ground, her young daughter screamed, “Mommy! Mommy!” video shows.
Ngwu, a mother of four and a nurse at an area nursing home, clung to life with massive head injuries until she died early Monday at Jamaica Hospital, her shattered family said.
The victim’s older daughter, Princess Ngwu, told The Post on Monday that while the family is glad that cops have identified her mom’s suspected killer, “What’s done is done.
“We can’t bring her back,” Princess said. “It doesn’t really change anything.
“It’s tragic what happened, but it is what it is,” she added. ” We’re OK. She trained us all very well. We were her life — her kids, her husband.”
Princess said she wants her mother to be remembered “as a strong woman.”
“She was a fierce woman, the fiercest woman you’ll ever meet,” she said. “All she ever did was just work, come home, care for us.”

I presume this is all because of cyclists an bike lanes.
The man who stole the truck and killed this nurse and mother will most likely be declared "mentally ill" and not fit to stand trial.
And many of his lawyers will do everything to make sure he will not serve time in prison.
Steal, Kill, and Repeat.
NYC at its best.

Well, there is always that possibility that he is mentally ill. Do you have some inside information to the contrary? If so, could you share it with us all?
