法拉盛司机撞死1岁华裔男婴案：里维拉遭大陪审团12项罪名起诉
纽约州皇后县纽约市法拉盛区皇后区地区检察官梅琳达·卡茨11月6日宣布，57岁的法拉盛居民埃尔文·里维拉已被大陪审团以12项罪名起诉，包括二级过失杀人、二级车辆过失杀人、二级袭击、无证驾驶和毒驾等，罪名涉及10月11日撞死1岁华裔男婴贾斯汀·胡的车祸。检方称，10月11日周日上午约8时35分，里维拉驾驶一辆白色雪佛兰Silverado皮卡沿默里街北行，在32大道停牌处未停车、加速冲过路口，撞上由保姆推着婴儿车横过32大道的贾斯汀·胡，男童送医后不久不治。里维拉留在现场，现场药检与随后血液检测确认其体内含有可卡因和四氢大麻酚成分。检方还指出，里维拉当时在违反限制性驾照规定的情况下开车，他另有一起2026年4月在布朗克斯的酒驾案在身。皇后区最高法院法官迈克尔·哈托菲利斯责令里维拉于2027年1月7日出庭，最高罪名若成立可判5至15年监禁。卡茨表示，里维拉“自私地决定在受可卡因和四氢大麻酚影响下开车”，并向男童家人表示慰问。
检方称，里维拉在案发时体内检出可卡因与四氢大麻酚成分，且当时在布朗克斯区另有一宗2026年4月的酒驾案件未结；推着婴儿车的保姆在事故中手臂受伤。地区检察官卡茨称这起悲剧「令人心碎且完全可以避免」。起诉书仅为指控，被告在被依法证明有罪之前推定无罪。

Flushing Driver Who Killed 1-Year-Old Chinese-American Boy Indicted on 12 Counts
Elvin Rivera, 57, of Flushing, has been indicted by a grand jury on 12 counts, including second-degree manslaughter, second-degree vehicular manslaughter, second-degree assault, driving without a licence and driving under the influence of drugs, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on November 6. The charges stem from the October 11 crash that killed 1-year-old Justin Hu.
Prosecutors say that at about 8:35 a.m. on Sunday, October 11, Rivera drove a white Chevrolet Silverado north on Murray Street, rolled through the stop sign at 32nd Avenue without stopping, accelerated through the intersection and struck the stroller being pushed by the baby's nanny, who suffered an injured arm. Rivera allegedly had cocaine and THC in his system and had an open DWI case in the Bronx from April 2026. DA Katz called the loss 'heartbreaking' and 'completely avoidable'. An indictment is an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
