Driver who fatally struck NYC grandma as she pushed 2-year-old girl in stroller hit with charges

The pickup truck driver who fatally struck a Brooklyn woman as she pushed her 2-year-old granddaughter in a stroller has been charged with failure to yield, police said Wednesday.

Faheem Shabazz, 56, was behind the wheel of a 2022 Dodge Ram on 25th Avenue when he made a left turn onto Bath Avenue and hit 66-year-old Xia Ying Chen in the crosswalk around 1 p.m. Tuesday in Bath Beach, according to cops.

The grandmother suffered head trauma and was brought to NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn, but could not be saved, authorities said.

Her toddler granddaughter miraculously suffered only scrapes and bruises as a result of the crash, authorities said.

Shabazz stayed at the site of the crash until cops arrived.

He was charged with two counts of failure to yield to a pedestrian and released with a desk appearance ticket.

It wasn’t immediately clear when he was set to appear in court.

Chen lived just over a mile from where she was struck, and Shabazz lives in East Flatbush. 

Photos showed a host of items from the tragic grandmother-granddaughter outing strewn in the roadway – including a pink mesh bag, a beige hat, a tiny blue shoe and the blue stroller.
