An MTA bus struck and killed a female pedestrian as she walked on Ocean Avenue during the Wednesday evening rush.
She was rushed to a nearby hospital where medical workers pronounced her dead.
Javarea Moughal, who identified herself as the victim's friend, says the pedestrian's name was Rukshana.
Moughal says the victim was originally from Pakistan and was the mother of multiple children.
Surveillance video appears to show the initial contact and then the woman as she's dragged farther down the street between avenues J and K.
Police say the investigation is ongoing.
