Monica Henk was in a terrible hit & run motorcycle accident this past Saturday. At this time she is in critical condition.
Monica is essentially brain dead. Her entire family has signed documents to turn off life support, they are waiting for the hospital to process the request. All efforts are being focused on finding the hit and run driver.
The amount of the reward is continually raised as donations pour in, but so far it exceeds $4,000.
The driver of the vehicle was never caught. At this time, the best description anyone has about the vehicle was that it was a black SUV. ****update, Police said they believe it was a 95-97(year) black S-10 Blazer missing a front bumper****The accident occurred on the corner of Kent & Flushing Ave. in Brooklyn, New York at about 7am on Saturday, April 7th, 2007.

Its very sad.Recent car accident article shows that every thirteen minutes there is death caused by a motor vehicle accident. Most car accidents are entirely preventable. There are also several recent car accident article says the there is nothing better than driving a car that is paid off.
OMG! I hadn't heard anything about this so it came as a total shock. I used to belong to a tattoo web site that she and Dan were members of. She did wonderful work and I once told her that if I ever met her in person I would love to have her tattoo me. I am so sorry to hear this. Does anyone have an update on whether or not the person that did this has been caught?
