A 13-year-old Brooklyn girl died a hero after shooing other kids out of the way of an SUV - driven by a mortally wounded ex-con - before it crushed her, police and witnesses said Sunday.
Kira Goddard shouted a warning moments before the Range Rover crashed in front of her Brownsville home, neighbors said.
She saved them all, said Lyn Joseph, 36. She said, 'Run, run,' to all the other kids, because she saw the car coming. And when she went to move out of the way it was too late.
Sean Lewis, who had a stab wound to the torso, was driving the SUV west on Pacific St. when it hit three double-parked cars near Saratoga Ave. about 10:10 p.m. Saturday, cops said. He backed up, hit a parked car and flipped his vehicle.
The SUV pinned Kira onto the front steps of her apartment building. She died at the scene.
