Yesterday, the NYPD released an image of the man suspected of a crashing a BMW into a livery cab, killing a young couple and their unborn child. At the moment, authorities are searching for 44-year-old Julio Acevedo, who allegedly fled the scene of the accident. 

Nachman and Raizy Glauber were both just 21 years old. Raizy Glauber was seven months pregnant with their first child. After surviving the crash, the boy was delivered by cesarean section. Tragically, he died at the hospital yesterday morning.

The vehicle was registered to 29-year-old Takia Walk, not Acevedo. Walk was arrested and charged with insurance fraud, as police say she got possession of the car through "false pretense," and allowed an uninsured person to drive it.

Back on Feb. 17, Acevedo was arrested for drunk driving. He also served ten years in a state prison for manslaughter in 1989.
