A woman visiting the Big Apple from Germany with her husband was killed and nearly decapitated when a hit-and-run minivan driver plowed into the couple in Midtown Wednesday afternoon, police sources said.
The 50-year-old woman and 55-year-old man from Hamburg were struck by the driver of a green Toyota minivan – who had a vanity plate with the words “TIMES SQUARE” – around 2:40 p.m. at the corner of Fifth Avenue and East 40th Street, according to cops and sources.
The woman was nearly decapitated on impact and pronounced dead, the sources said.
