It's not a cop this time, but a state corrections officer who has reportedly mowed down a woman with his car in Brooklyn this morning. The as yet unnamed 38-year-old victim was struck at St. Marks and Flatbush Avenues and pronounced dead at Methodist Hospital. Sing Sing employee Damon Padmore, aka KokoHead (which name appears on his license plate), also 38, was on his way to work at the time of the incident. He is charged with driving with a suspended license.

For an article as such, with descriptions of an incident as such, is without knowing the person is disturbing. Damon Padmore was on his way to work that morning, not socializing or anything else. Damon is well regarded as a good upstanding friend, Correction Officer, and man. For anyone to think anything else except that this was a horrible accident would be very sadly mistaken. My heart goes out not only to Damon and his family but also to the young woman that died in this horrible accident and her grief stricken family.
