”I think I’m correct if I assume that the driver was only sent to kill and dismembered her body part because as brutal as the accident was, nothing happened to the guy. He stepped out of the car like he was not the driver.”

Another witness, who chose to remain anonymous, confirmed the severity of the collision.
