Williamsburg, NY - Tragedy Claims Lives Of Expectant Parents In Brooklyn; NYPD Looking For Driver Who Fled |

Last updated on: March 3, 2013 12:53 PM
Williamsburg, NY - Funeral services will be held this afternoon for the young Williamsburg couple whose lives were tragically cut short as they were en route to a hospital to deal with a pregnancy related issue, as previously reported on VIN News.
Both Nachman and Raizy Glauber were killed after a 2010 BMW sedan slammed into the livery cab they were riding in, according to reports in The Daily News. While the expectant parents, aged 21 years old, both died at local hospitals, doctors at Bellevue Hospital were able to deliver the Glaubers’ son by emergency c-section.
Mrs. Glauber was reportedly nearing the end of her second trimester and the couple was on their way to nearby Long Island College Hospital at the time of the accident. The four pound baby is said to be in serious condition and the public is asked to daven for Tinok ben Raizel.
The accident took place at 12:30 AM, according to police reports, and the Glaubers were in a 2008 black Toyota Camry traveling west on Wilson Street when their vehicle was struck by the speeding BMW, which was traveling north on Kent Avenue. Both the driver of the BMW and a passenger fled the scene on foot and police reportedly identified the pair to 1010 WINS as a man and a woman.
No arrests have been made as of yet and detectives at Brooklyn’s 90th Precinct told VIN News that no details will be released at this time due to the ongoing nature of the investigation.
According to reports on CBS News, the unidentified driver of the livery cab survived the crash and called 911 immediately following the collision. Mrs. Glauber was thrown from the car by the force of the impact which was so severe that it sent the mangled Toyota spinning into the median, with the pregnant woman landing under a tractor trailer that was parked nearby. Both the cab driver and Nachman Glauber were pinned to the car and first responders had to cut the roof off the Camry in order to extricate the two. Nachman Glauber died at Beth Israel Hospital while the cab driver was taken to Bellevue Hospital where he is listed in stable condition.
“I wasn’t there when it happened, but I was nearby and when I saw the fire department and Jewish ambulances coming, I ran over,” eyewitness Shulem Amram told VIN News. “The fire department had to cut open the car. They took off the windshield and the roof and took the male out of the car and laid him down. A few seconds later, they noticed the woman lying under the tractor trailer.”
Amram, a 19 year old yeshiva student who lives in Williamsburg, received emergency training as part of his certification as a Water Safety Instructor. He performed CPR on Glauber along with members of Hatzalah.
“He was fully unconscious and wasn’t responding at all. I tried my best but we lost him.”
The funeral for the young couple, who had been married for just one year, is scheduled to take place at 2:00 this afternoon at the main Satmar synagogue in Williamsburg at 152 Rodney Street.

Know How to Mourn the Destruction of the Bais Hamikdosh...
I want you to know why I took the Sefer Chessed Shel Emes (a Sefer on Hilchos Aveilus) out of the book shelf.
In the next span of time we are going to see the deaths of many Jews, Chas VeSholom, Hashem Yishmor, and we must know how to deal with it. Also the Tzaar of the Shechina is great, and the mourning at the Kossel, over the Bais HaMikdosh has been neglected terribly. People come and go, frolicking in unseemly ways in not Tzniusdik clothing or actions with out a care in the world. It’s become a sight seeing place for the masses and I must cry and we all must cry for the Tzaar of the Shechina that must observe this orgy daily and nightly. We must know how to mourn our dear Bais HaMikdosh and to beg Hashem to bring the Geulah.
We’ll have to mourn many Korbonos in Am Yisroel not just in Eretz Yisroel but also in the whole world. The future is very hard but the true Jews will survive. Not every Jew that dies before the Geula can be deemed not a true Jew, but in the end the ones that greet Moshiach will be true Jews. The true Jews that died before the Geula will come back in Techias Hamaisim.

ברוך דיין האמת---קשה קשה קשה וכואב מאוד רבותי ! פלגי מים ירדו עיני על שריפת קדושים וטהורים
לא מבינים מה שעשה הקב"ה, אבל אנחנו יהודים מאמינים בני מאמינים וצריכים להאמין בלב שלם שהכל בא מד' יתברך שמו, הקב"ה ינחם אותנו בקרוב, ד' בחר בהם כקרבן ציבור ועכשיו אנחנו מחויבים לשוב בתשובה שלמה לד' בלב שלם
כתוב בספרים הקדושים, שאלמלי היינו עושים רצונו של מקום ושומרים מצוותיו, אז היתה הגאולה מתוך עשירות וגדולה ושמחה, אבל בעת שנהיה בבחינת אין עושין רצונו של מקום ח"ו – תהיה הגאולה מוכרחת להיות מתוך תוקף הצרות ודחקות ועניות ר"ל, מפני שאלו הצרות ישלימו הזכות שהיתה צריך להיות לנו על ידי שמירת התורה והמצות. המשיח מחכה לראות אם אנחנו באמת מחכים לו
קשה לדבר, וקשה לחשוב עיני עיני יורדה מים..... "יה"ר מלפניך שומע קול בכיות שתשים דמעותינו בנודך להיות ותצילנו מכל גזרות קשות ואכזריות" לא להרהר אחר מידותיו של הבורא יתברך, הקדוש ברוך הוא כי כל מה שעושה לטובה הוא עושה
אנחנו צריכים רק להתחזק כל אחד "אפילו במשהו קטן" לדוגמא- לקום בבוקר בזמן כדי להספיק זמן ק"ש של מג"א וזמן של הגר"א עם ברכות ק"ש, להתפלל שחרית לפני סוף זמן תפלה!!!! ללמוד אחרי התפילה יותר מהרגיל. לחזק הצניעות!!! וכך נזכה שהגאולה תגיע מתוך רחמים וחסדים גמורים, ושהקב"ה יעבור מכסא דין לכסא רחמים

I am so saddened by this tragedy. I am not Jewish but I deeply know the pain of this type of sense-less accident. I pray for everyone in pain because of this horrific crash..I pray for the doctors and nurses treating that little baby...I pray for the driver to come forward...my church prays for the entire community and the spiritual leaders who care for you...

It breaks heart to see a family wiped out in one night.
Why do we need to see one story after another!
Maybe there should a war against on people becoming drunk during weekends - just like the recent war on guns

Perhaps we wiil humbly make light of the hebrew
What people , what a people
To a tradition so sacred beholden
What they are trying to express
It is a sorrow
In where the sole understanding
Is that
The master
The creator
That it is with a pain very with him intimate
The riboyne shel oylum
He is looking he is
Kivyochul in need
Of a loyal unconditional
And devout friend
Similarly we find by avraham avinu
Hasem the master says
About him
Hamechase anni mavruhum oyhavi?
Then will i hide
Then will i obfiscate
From avraham my most beloved?
So in truth
It begs to wonder
How come if avraham he is your
Most beloved , then how come
Gevald in geshrigen
Then how come
Then how come to reveal to him such sorrow
Such affliction
Why to share with him
The torment
The relentless exile
His progeny is about to befall
Why why-to
, but perhaps
Perhaps precious brothers and sisters
Perhaps
Its the othe other way
Perhaps its the other way around
Kivyachul , the riboyne shelolem
He wants , he desires one, his suffering to share with
One his tsaar hashchina to empathize with
Is theriboyne sheloylum he says
Hamechassa ani mavruhum oyhavi
Here
Here i have
One
One whos fealty. Whos loyalty
It is sealed for eternity
No longerit is challanged
I know his every breath
It is a kiddush hashem
It is astute steadfast
His covelant bont with truth with emes
Is , then let me share my pain
Then let me perhaps
Share with him
Fore i know it is only
That he will further with me
Be of comfort
And perhaps tsooras rabim chutzi nechuma
A sorrow in communion it is half of comfort
Sweet sweet klal yisroe-l
Only to say
It is
That in essence
Words
They are none but sheer arrogance
We find by yossef hatsadik
Oy gevald
We find
When he met the brothers
And vayitain es koyloy bivchee
He gave his voice with a wail with a cry
Perhaps
Perhaps at this time
In order to meetreal
Achdus
True אחו׳
Perhaps words they are rather inferior
Do we really feel
Tothe point where only tears where solelya cry
Couldexplain?

of course its a terrible tragedy beyond words but when an accident like this occurs I don't think it should be understood that Hashem is punnishing the entire Klal Yisroel of course we are all saddned when we hear such news but it doesn't seem to be a gzeira on the klal
also because this was an action by a bal bchira ut doesn't necessarily mean that Hashem was even punnihing at all this is a deep hashkafic issue best left for gedolim to deal with

Please take it easy, he happens to be 100% correct, maybe it's to much for you to swallow in one day, but he was only trying to inspire us. There is defiantly much room for improvement in my case for sure, but I think that Hashem used this special couple as a Korbon Tzibur to wake us all up to improve our Middos and the way we preform out Mitzvos.
We are lacking much of the Emes in our way of life, Hashem is clearly not happy with us, look how many tragedies R"L almost every family have some kind of hardship life is very difficult for the majority of the Yidden. Clear message for improvement towards all of the Halochos 613 Mitzvos.

“Why must people find specific reasons for tragedies? Yes, we know there is a reason, as it was decreed by Hashem, but why isn’t that knowledge enough? Why must we blame it on specific things?” Tznius etc.
The reason that we have to find a reason is because Hashem is obviously begging us for something and if we find the reason and improve on it then we won’t have to have to suffer more Tzoros and if we don’t improve Chas VeSholom who knows?
So the above posts that where suggesting in what way to improve are just trying to help avoid more tragedies from happening to us. Hashem is watching us very closely, so so many Yidden don't have what to eat, do we really care? why can't we slip an envelope under their door so they can get some food or pay bills etc. or find them a Job.

of course its a terrible tragedy beyond words but when an accident like this occurs I don't think it should be understood that Hashem is punnishing the entire Klal Yisroel of course we are all saddned when we hear such news but it doesn't seem to be a gzeira on the klal
also because this was an action by a bal bchira ut doesn't necessarily mean that Hashem was even punnihing at all this is a deep hashkafic issue best left for gedolim to deal with ”

“ BD”E beyond tragic and sad, This is so heartbreaking, Very sad night/weekend. 4 Heimishe fatalities… Glauber couple tonight in willi, 14 yr old boy Hirsch in Monroe NY Friday & 19 yr old Landau in B'klyn Thursday. All the recent story's are wake up calls for sure.
It's barely a week from Purim, but it feels as if we were in the 9 days. On Thursday evening a Bucher passed out into cardiac arrest at a wedding in the Continental Hall, on Friday another Bucher suddenly passed away at home in Kiryas Yoel after seizing in the shower, and now this tragic accident...
It’s a terrible tragedy beyond words but when an accident like this occurs I think it should be understood that Hashem is punishing the entire Klal Yisroel of course we are all saddened when we hear such news and it seem to be a Gzeira (decree) on the entire klal Yisroel.
So the million Dollar question is: what are WE going to do about it? Are we going to continue with business as usual?? Or are we ALL going to get together and show Hashem that we are changing our ways to get closer to Hashem by perfecting our Mitzvos.
I'm not looking to criticize but there is much room for improvement. ”
I don't think what he wrote here is so terrible. It's human nature to scream out, demand answers and so on. Let's try to accept each of us grieves & questions in our own way. Me, I am just devastated & crying. When I go to teach tomorrow I don't know how we will deal with it. Siblings, cousins are my students. Hashem bring us out of Golus now. Too much.

I doubt you even knew the niftar so to suggest that their tragic death was the result of their failure to be machmir in hilchos tzinius is both mindless and totally inappropriate. Neither you nor anyone but the Ebeshter knows why he let this happen. You should not be judgmental of them.

Horrific tragedy is an understatement. There are not enough words to describe this. My prayers to the family and prayers that there will be some miracles from this unspeakable tragedy. I pray that the baby and the car service driver survive their injuries. One thing that I can't stand is when people want to speak for Hashem with their imaginations and answer all the questions and events that occur on this planet. The niftar are not buried yet and people go on rambling about tznius and this and that. Stop exploiting tragedies for a moment for your zealous agendas. There are no rational reasons to why Hashem does this!
Traffic accidents and drunk driving kill tens of thousands of people in this country every year. We need more public awareness on road safety, more government enforcement against speeding and DUI and harsher punishment for violators involved in deadly collisions. We must start teaching our kids and adults that seat-belts in the backseat also raise your chance of survival! I know most people do not wear seat belts in the back seats because it's a cultural thing and a lot of misconceptions.

The source for this is the Or HaChaim on the posuk where the brother threw Yosef into the Bor. Where chazal say Mayim ain sham aval nchashim v'akravim yesh sham. The Or HaChaim says there weren't alot. If there were, how could the brothers then say, "let's see what Hashem does to him" - if there were many snakes and scorpions it would be them killing Yosef even if that was not what Hashem planned for him.
This seems to argue with the Ramban at the end of Parshas Bo and a few places in Daas Tvunos.

the reason the driver was saved is becase of the Air bags,he had air bags opened all around him, the passengers didn't have any, the husband was seat belted and was also killed, even before his wife who wasn't seat belted, so in this case it wouldn't matter, BUT peeple should take seat belts very serious, it most accidents seat belts are life savers, also if you are a car service driver or you have a family make sure when you buy a car it has PASSENGER AIR BAGS, that would probebly save this tragedy,
also, people today are TXTING while driving, it became the biggest cause of accidents today, Chas V'shulem if you make an accident and anyone is killed they will check with your carrier if you were txting and if you were they will treat you as a first degree murder which can be life in prison,

“ Linda i am a family a nephew to my dear uncle
Money it is not the issue , he will not take a dime
He will not allow profiting off of a soul so pure like his beloved daughter and precious son, n law monitary matters , dont fall for it especially online , if you are concerned then i could provide a phone number you should speak directly with her brother , a kind hearted soul, linda no words , it is a dark dark day it is truly a day of infamy ,g-d to him i am most certain , to him the sole reason he keeps all the ocean all the sea it is merely to show , to unveil for us all , his tears for this tragic horrific , story, and you what you represent , it is a spirit , acquainted with , the universality of the human wonder

Linda was extremely nice and generous...and I would not call it profiting, when someone wants to contribute to a fund "usually" set up under such circumstances. Perhaps Linda does not know or identify with our community...but there may be cases where such a fund would be necessary and whoever would have contributed, would be praised.
In any case...sorry that your family was hit so hard today, but I cannot understand what you were trying to say to Linda...it is so unclear...

“ Baruch Dayan ha'Emet! May the R"SH give their families strength and their baby boy a refuah shlemah. I hope the families decide to have the little boy raised by a couple who themselves can not conceive. It would be a beracha and gift from the biologic parents. ”
You cannot make gifts in anyone's name, especially if they are not here to bestow that gift on anyone. I'm sure they would appreciate if family took care of their own and there is lots of that. Why put it in a home of strangers, who unfortunately may not have children....when there are loving family amongst him?

Part # 1
The Rambam says that when a Tragedy strikes and people say it "just happened" for no particular reason, the this is Midas Achzorios because Hashem want's us to learn a lesson from a Tragedy.
If the Lesson is learned, then Hashem knows that we "Got The Point" and therefore we are guaranteed that such a lesson will no longer "have to be learned" ever again and that's exactly why the flip side of the coin, if we fail; to learn a lesson, it is Midas Achzoriaus for the precise same reason.
No one can claim that he knows Hashem's reasons and everyone agrees that this couple were Tzadikim and Didn't deserve it, but the real pain is that of those who remain living, which is the entire community, especially Satmer. Those who passed away, are no longer suffering, but all of Stamar and all of Klal Yisroel will be pained forever.

Miraculous. Miraculous that the baby survived. Miraculous that this child will be raised by a family and a community who, without doubt, will love, cherish and nuture him. Miraculous that in one simple act, g-d has taken life and given life and shown the world the greatness of family and community acting out of selfless love.

How dare you insult the memory of these two victims by suggesting your own reason for their untimely deaths? If you want to suggest that we look into our hearts and find ways to better ourselves in their merits, ok, that would be commendable and admirable.

I can't think of a more heartbreaking experience than losing children so young as this couple. As a parent, which I am, you always believe that it is you who will pass one day and your children will survive to live a long and good life. Unfortunately, this is not always to be for some of us. It is a time to embrace the family with love and support so they can survive this horrific act done by someone who is deeply troubled.
Unfortunately, good people fall victim to the free will of others everyday. We are subject to free will on this earth, and it is this free will that can bring evil senseless acts into our lives from those that are deeply troubled.
My heart breaks for the family of this lovely young couple who should have had a lifetime ahead of them. But in spite of this tragedy a blessed part of them does remain. A pure innocent being that will be blessed all his life with the love of his family and all those that sincerely care.
We are the hands of God on earth. With his teachings in hand, we will be strong and even stronger when evil strikes. The good and decent must stick together, no matter what religion or beliefs, to show evil that it can not and will not destroy us and will never ultimately win.

Tznius is a sore subject to most of us,(for me too) the Gra”h (the Vilna Goan) writes that the same way that men are protected by learning Torah, women are protected by their Tznius, this has nothing to do with Yocheved (post 155) this has to do with what it says in our Torah: that when we lack Tznius Hashem removes him self from us c”v and then we are all in great danger as we have seen what happened to us with the Gloubers who where holy Neshomos that suffered for the rest of us. Yocheved already quoted, suggesting that Tznius needs improvement it’s like saying don’t stop breathing if want to stay alive, unfortunately we all know that Tznius desires much improvement in many communities world wide. “Tznius is Hashem’s pride and glory”
As far as people pretending to be Neviam and suggesting all sort of Mitzvos that we have to improve on, its OK to do so, because Hashem didn’t bring this kind of tragedy up on us so that we can keep on living our lives as we have been till now, Hashem is crying out loud SCREAMING at us saying “I have taken away from you a special holy pure clean couple who where a Korbon Tzibur in order to wake up the rest of the Klall”

everyone is always welcome to share their thoughts ideas and feelings in order to make sure that all of us are starting to wake up and practicing the Mitzvos in a better way that we have been conforming till now.
However Tznius is always on the top priority of the list, that desires much improvement! BTW the Mitzvah of Tznius is for men and women alike, There has never been a time in Jewish history that any Leader i.e. a Rav, Godol, Mekubal, Chacham or Rebbeh suggesting to stop improving our Tznius, I know that it’s a sore subject to most of us (4 ME TOO) yes it is very difficult because we all want to look good, but looking good is for inside of our homes not when we go outside.
I was personally very moved by Yocheved’s post and spent much time going through my wardrobe putting much of what I found to be inappropriate according to Halocha in the garbage as a Zechus for the Gloubers Z”L.
Tznius is not an obsession Tznius is the way Hashem expects us to dress think and live, i.e. if a Bas Yisroel is walking down the street dressed Tznius and is still talking loud, or making noise with her heals-shoes, attracting attention from men in any way, she is not complying with Tz

I happen to be a very compassionate person,and people read the comments, not only the one's that it is addressed to. It is an open forum for everyone...so, just wanted to let you know. We're good...right?

“ Tznius is not an obsession Tznius is the way Hashem expects us to dress think and live, i.e. if a Bas Yisroel is walking down the street dressed Tznius and is talking loud, or making noise with her heals-shoes, attracting attention from men in any way, she is not fully complying with the laws of Tznius.
May Hashem help us and we should be Zocha to: have a Korbon Pesach this year joined by Nachman and Raizy Glauber and baby- בזכות נשים צדקניות
can't wait to see you there!!! ”
Tzniuz is takeh not an obsession, but her constantly bringing it up IS.
I am all for tznius on every level, I just don't think it is wise to use this time of tragedy and suffering to push that agenda on anyone. We all know our weaknesses and right now....compassion and empathy are the call of the day, not lecturing. that's all.

“ everyone is always welcome to share their thoughts ideas and feelings in order to make sure that all of us are starting to wake up and practicing the Mitzvos in a better way that we have been conforming till now.
However Tznius is always on the top priority of the list, that desires much improvement! BTW the Mitzvah of Tznius is for men and women alike, There has never been a time in Jewish history that any Leader i.e. a Rav, Godol, Mekubal, Chacham or Rebbeh suggesting to stop improving our Tznius, I know that it’s a sore subject to most of us (4 ME TOO) yes it is very difficult because we all want to look good, but looking good is for inside of our homes not when we go outside.
I was personally very moved by Yocheved’s post and spent much time going through my wardrobe putting much of what I found to be inappropriate according to Halocha in the garbage as a Zechus for the Gloubers Z”L.
Tznius is not an obsession Tznius is the way Hashem expects us to dress think and live, i.e. if a Bas Yisroel is walking down the street dressed Tznius and is still talking loud, or making noise with her heals-shoes, attracting attention from men in any way, she is not complying with Tz ”
I'm really happy you were inspired by her...no problem. I just don't think this is the time and place for mussar.
It says, or heard from a Gadol that when you go to a house of shiva you should not
tell the mourner that the nifter is in a good place and everything is Min Hashumayim and console the mourner in that way. When a person suffers, you show empathy, compassion....leave the lectures and other stuff for later. Now..now we lost three people...now is not the time to fill us in on all our faults.. We are hurting, we know the score...we are scoring low...we all know that, we need improvement in more areas than TZNIUS...TRUST ME...
But here....and now...I THINK WHAT CALLS FOR IS RACHMUNOS FOR THE LOSS OF THREE LIVES...THAT YES, HASHEM WANTED THEM BACK, NEVERTHELESS, A LOSS FOR TWO FAMILIES...GET IT????

If i may humbly bring to your attevtion , it is of times many that perception and self appointing that convinces one , that he or she is fluent in a certain subject , topic or matter , yet the wise rather would read and read and read again aand again in order to reach a conclusion or rather to render a statement in perticular on behalf of another human being , so dear friend speculating that it is you who is a man , conversing rather in a masculine manner i would advise you- be not so quick to issue your oppinion , when it is one directs his attention to a woman with a sensitive conduct
And yes we are good , but you know sir , open forum yes but when there is a REPLY click perhaps it is to illustrate just that , that it is between two adults rather its contrast , thanks though for your imput

“ When will the NYPD finally crack down on speeders racing through our neighborhoods? Even our crown jewel Hatzaloh was powerless to save this young couple, may the newborn be zocha to make them proud. R'L ”
Hatzaloh isnt any better bc they are "yours" they are just as trained as any other certified ambulance no? They both (meaning 911) would of worked with the same amount of strength to keep these to angels alive. This is truly a tragedy...

How in the world could you say that I would not stop laughing knowing who you are. There are millions of people that could visit this site ...and you already figured out that I am probably a Male and someone close to you...I find that rather quite interesting..almost prophetic...would you say?
I did like your sentence about :"let the myth unveil its magical artistry as we converse rather in a .strange fashion.
Nice...love it...seriously...........

“ I am so saddened by this tragedy. I am not Jewish but I deeply know the pain of this type of sense-less accident. I pray for everyone in pain because of this horrific crash..I pray for the doctors and nurses treating that little baby...I pray for the driver to come forward...my church prays for the entire community and the spiritual leaders who care for you... ”
Dear Linda,
Thank you so much for your kind words.The best description in our vernacular is:
U R a mensch (a real human being).

Or perhaps better yet " let the myth unravel her magic via objective discourse"
Always more constructive then of her contrast,concur?

You're growing on me...sentence structure much improved...and still haven't gotten the answer to: how do we know each other?
