A teenager, who wasn't named because of his age, was charged in a head-on car crash that killed Yonkers, New York, Detective Sgt. Frank Gualdino.
A teenage BMW driver was 'criminally negligent' when he killed a New York detective affectionately known in the department as 'Furby,' prosecutors said. Yonkers Detective Sgt. Frank Gualdino, 53, was only eight months away from retirement when a 16-year-old driver with a learner's permit lost control of his car, crossed double yellow lines and smashed head-on into Gualdino's car. That was back on Dec.
The driver was arrested, and a grand jury indicted him on a felony charge of criminally negligent homicide. Local newspaper The Journal News noted the teenager was brought into court with Gualdino's handcuffs. My office has been committed throughout this nearly year-long investigation to seeking accountability in this tragic and devastating incident that took the life of Detective Sgt. Gualdino,' Westchester County District Attorney Mimi Rocah said in a statement.
