NEW YORK -- A man suspected of abducting a 9-year-old girl and sexually assaulting her in New York City was killed in a crash fleeing police, officials said. The accident in Queens Village happened Friday after police tried to pull over a gray Honda Civic that matched the description of a car they were looking for in the abduction investigation. Surveillance video shows the Honda Civic running a stop sign on 90th Avenue and T-boning a red Jeep at the intersection with 212th Street.
The driver of the Honda, identified at 64-year-old Wayne Nolan, was pronounced dead at the hospital. The driver of the Jeep suffered minor injuries. According to police, Nolan's car matched the description of one involved in a reported child abduction and sex assault at the Key Food supermarket around the corner on Jamaica Avenue. Thursday night, police said a 9-year-old girl was at the store with her grandmother and the two became separated.
