    hope domonik survives, but everyone is making it like avi did it purposely, its called an accident for a reason!

  • Monika

    Before you post any comments here, please consider the feelings of Dominik’s family. This page is about DOMINIK, who is fighting for his life, and who is the real victim here. Let’s offer our hopes and prayers for his recovery. He is a kind loving individual, that deserves no less. Dominik, we are praying for you…

    • voice of reason

      I do agree this is for Dominik if you want to post comments for the OTHER guy go do it on some other site …

  • Mikey Bangsz

    avi did do a very big mistake by leaving the scene, but if it happened to any of you drivers, you would also hesitate and drive away. he went home that night , im one of his friends and if he wanted to he would of went somewhere where no 1 can find him! avi we all with u brat! be safe!

    • Mike

      SO how come the second driver who accidentally hit him DIDN’T run away??? This was NOT a mistake, and MOST DECENT people would not just drive away. It goes to show how all of you (and you know who you are) who are in Avi’s circle are just a bunch of criminals and lowlifes. No HUMANE person injures someone and then just drives away, you shouldn’t even do that when you hit an animal let alone a person you cretin.

      • Vadim

        you on your high horse. just because he made on a bad split seconed choice doesnt mean he’s a “criminal and a low-life.” The only human thing that happend that night was that Avi, out of fear, ran in hopes of his own safety. the seconed person who ran him over put him in critical condition. but its because he stayed is why he an allright person? get your facts straight before you are so quick to judge

  • Agata

    Dominik please come back to us,your 6 years old god son needs you and his twin brother and their sister.they are asking what is wrong and why mommy and daddy are crying all the time.Domins we love you. it is not time to go yet!!!!

  • Christina H.

    Wow this entire situation is so heartbreaking on every level. The family of Dominick Winnick needs every ounce of support and prayer that we have to offer. It is amazing that in times like these people can actually demonstrate so much anger and vengence that it blinds their compassion. It only shows how imperfect we are as humans. If you think that you or the family gains anything from your hatred toward this 17 year old kid….you’re wrong.

    • Avraham is cruel!

      But this Avraham must be made an example of don’t you think? Other people need to see that you can’t just hit and run and get away with it. It’s easy to show hatred towards a bad seed like him, because good people are outraged with his cruelty.

      • Christina H.

        I’m glad it’s easy for you. Run with it.

      • Vadim

        what the hell is wrong with you? he was acting on fear! he knew what would happen to him, so when fear hit him, it was ether fight or flight. and since there was no reason to fight, flight was his only option.

  • KILLMAN

    we coulda been your daddy but the monkey beat me up the stairs. . .
    with that said do you really believe that punishment of an accident is in anyway a justice? if so then perhaps i should development a time machine and stop your mother from forgetting her diaphragm the night you were conceived – making u an accident – and unfairly punishing your mother. . .is that justice? lets pray the man lives my heart goes out to the family but at the same time boys will be boys. at leastt he didnt KILL MAN

  • Jacek Pacynko

    The victim is my cousin. It is very painful to see someone getting hurt like that.
    Who on earth gives such a BIG car to totally unexperienced 17 year old beginner driver???!!!! And why 17 year old is driving at 10.30 at night in the city alone!!? I believe that most of responsibility for what happened is on drivers parents side.

    There is so many questions but no answers will repair the damage.

    I deeply believe that Dominik will recover and I pray for him from the centre of my heart.
    We love you Dominik…

    • Justice for Dominick

      It’s very obvious that Avi’s parents did NOT teach him right from wrong. To hit another human being, and then be heartless enough to run away without trying to help that person is criminal. This is not a mistake on his part, even if his family and friends may think so, this was his gut instinct to do the wrong thing. Likewise, unless he cops a plea, any judge and jury will punish him for the horrific act of running away from a person he hit. And yes, the parents of Avi are responsible and must be liable for the civil suit which Dominick and his family must pursue. Justice MUST be served and I’m confident will be by good decent people.

      • Vadim

        right like the good person who ran him over the seconed time, and if he was paying attention to the road, he would have stopped and not Mr. Dominick into critical posistion.

  • jimmy

    You are right but first lets concentrate on praying for the victim, Dominick Winnick and his family. May god heal him and restore his good health.

    Then god can and will punish Avi as he see’s fit.

  • may dom recover

    Jack Winnick: it is being reported that your brother has died from the vehicular assault. Please tell us this isn’t true and may everyone pray for DOminick.

    children make mistakes everyday and they get scared and dont know how to handle it. avi is an amazing boy and he made a terrible mistake but he is being very cooperative. he just ran because he was in a state of shok. everyone gets scared and hesitates and runs sometimes. hes a boy he got scared its a natural instict. my heart goes out to the man in critical condition. im pray that he will be ok and he can go home healthy to his family. i dont think avi should have his life taken away, hes just a kid with a whole life ahead of him. take his lisence or wtvr but i dont think he shud be put away. i hope that everything turns out good. the man is in my prayers and so is ai. we love you and hope u come home. i know this is a tough situation for everyone but what will it solve to press charges. its a sad situation yes but why ruin a child life. its enough he will live with this for the rest of his life.

  • To Avi’s Friends

    Avi’s friends: It’s nice of you all to defend him. However, he’s one of those hotshot drivers that do not deserve to be on the road. If you think “everything is going to be alright” and it’s that simple… why don’t you get in front of a car or put Avi in front of one and let someone hit you and him. “Everything will be alright…” IDIOTS!

    “Avi’s a good kid.” Really? Then why did he break the law driving with an improper license?

    Avi’s got no balls. He makes a mistakes, tucks his tail between his legs then runs home.

    Avi (that coward) will pay!

    • Richard G37

      This is a sad and unfortunate event for both parties. All of you guys are going back and fourth about how bad Avi messed up. We know. The past is the past, the focus should now be doing everything possible for the victim. Avi is a good warm hearted kid. Made a HUGE mistake… an accident. Under all the pressure he is under I know he is praying for the well being and survival of Dominick. 108 st is well know for these types of accidents and fatalities. FYI Jere His license was a class”DJ” which means he can drive,but must be supervised after 9 pm. A lot of people are taking this out of hand and are irrational. Be reasonable he is a child, and innocent immature child who lives only to study in school, earn a couple of bucks at work, and contribute to his family. He panicked like any human being would do, he was scared. I support and prey for the well being of both victims Dominick, hang in there, your time hasn’t yet come. and Avi let god protect you from these sick cannibals and just want to see you behind bars. You have my sympathy Avi, I know you wouldn’t do anything like this on purpose. Jere you are a complete IMBECILE! I would wish for you to be dragged in the same situation avi is in, but i pity an innocent victim. Is you aren’t pleased with your terrible perspective on life go to your room and slit your wrists. Save us all from your poison.

      • Jacek Pacynko

        …UNFORTUNATE FOR BOTH PARTIES??? How come?
        Good warm and nice kid you say he – who left the victim on the road and run away!!! Nice kid who brakes the law – after 9pm must be supervised – was he? Police didn’t report any passenger of the SUV!
        He’s being charged for leaving the scene of an accident and violating the terms of his restricted license!!!!
        So Richard G37 – I have no idea what is your pattern of logic in this situation but please stop protecting the offender and looking for an excuse!!!
        NICE PERSON DOESN’T HIT AND RUN!!!! Nice person takes responsibility of his own actions and faces consequences on the scene.
        So please Richard G37 leave us a family of the victim alone and free from your pointless comments. Try to respect it and don’t come back.

    • liooo123

      wow thats not nice to say! your telling me u never made a mistake in ur life? u cant say that! he is a child, and 17!! at this age everyone shows off with their cars, clothes and money! and everything will be alright! u gotta believe…avi is a good person and u will see, everything will work out for him!

      • Think liooo123, think…

        liooo123: I was 17 before. I didn’t try to show off with my car, clothes or money. And at 17, I understand that it’s a privilege to be able to drive (not a right). On top of that, I had enough intelligence to understand that there are consequences to my actions. Obviously, to Avi, people like you and similar people, are things like cars, clothes, money to get attention are what’s important in life.

        liooo123, if the victim (who died) was a close family member of yours (father, brother), you think you would say the same thing you just said?

  • Alen Davidi

    avi is a good friend of mines jere your nothing but a low life okay i bet if that was you you would go home to your mommy to okay so stfu before i find out info about you okay it was a poor mistake he’s only 17 i talked to his parents and they were feeling sorry for the 31 one year old victim so lay off bro

  • ben

    avi bart we all love u bro every1 makes mistakes ur a good kid. everything will be fine.. hang in there bro every1 is waitin to c u n ur smile bart we alll love u !!!!

  • Osuyun

    I went to school with Avi and he is a very kind hearted boy. He was scared and shooken and wasnt thinking when he fled the scene. If he was trying to hide he wouldnt have ran home he would have gone some where else where no one would find him. He didnt pla for this to happen it was an accident he is only a child he shouldnt have to pay off his lifetime for a mistake that he is traumatized for already. My heart goes out to the victim as well ofcourse it is sad. But Avi is just a young boy and for all those that know who he is will tell you the same. Avi stay strong your in my prayers and everything will be fine!

  • Maciej

    To all those who protect that 17 years old m…f, I am best friend of the victim and I was holding his hand when he was suffering on the middle of the street. Don’t you there, to tell me that he is a good kid because my friend is fighting for his life, and he was a good person. Go f..k yourself if you stand with him.

    • A. Rios

      Hello I am trying to find out info on the man that was hit. I was the one there with you Maciej asking if you knew him, I was the guy feeling for his pulse and on the phone wiith the police. I was on the scene and tried to save him when it happend. I was the one who called the police to aid him and waited till they got there. Please if you have any info contact me so that I can contact his family.

      • Bogusia

        Dear Mr. A. Rios, Dominik Winnik is fighting for his life at New York Hospital Queens. His prognosis are very poor. Thank you very much for all your help. Dominik is a very good and the nicest man I have ever known.

    • Jere

      Take it easy. These are irresponsible, lighthearted, dumb teenagers with engorged feeling of entitlement, just like the first driver. Some of them come here to support this avi guy and don’t even say anything about Dominik who is the true victim. Julia – do you realize your ‘cool’ friend almost killed someone and then ran away to his mommy like a weasel? You don’t have anything nice to say to the victim? All he is in this story is the source of the problem your macho car driving friend is facing?

  • julia

    i cant believe this happened to him wow ….
    avii hang in there buddy !

    • A. Rios

      Hello I am trying to find out info on the man “Avii.” I was on the scene and tried to save him when it happend. I was the one who called the police to aid him and waited till they got there. Please if you have any info contact me so that I can contact his family.

      • A. Rios

        Sorry I am trying to find out info on the Injured (lately deceased) guy not the hitter…

      • Jere

        ‘avi’ is the first driver who hit the victim and ran. his school friends and relatives are showing their support here.
        The victim’s name is ‘dominik winnick’ but I’m not sure about spelling and validity of this.

  • Johnny Jay

    This could’ve happen to anyone. 108st is a very busy street and people cross with out caution. I bet the pedestrian he hit wasn’t looking or crossed in the middle of the road.
    And I understand why he ran home and asked his parents what to do. He’s a young man who was scared and hesitated, and this first thing he thought of was his loved ones. He did confess which is better then just hiding and waiting to get caught.

    I live a building away from “Avraham Mullokandov” and anytime I see him he is either helping people, going to work, or like every teenager playing sports in the local park.

    He’s a really good boy and to hear about this is very hard. I hope it all turns out well I feel for him and support him all the way through.

  • A.J.

    I bet the cops did not do anything to the thug behind the wheel

    • A.J.

      hes not a thug thats my cousin, hes such a thoughtful and nice person, he takes care of his sister like a saint he’s a smart kid, dont say that

      • Jere

        Nice person doesn’t leave the scene of an accident. When you get behind the wheel you assume certain responsibilities, no matter how young you are.

      • A.J.

        sorry hes not my cousin, im thinkin of a different avi

  • Marina Ios

    well., i guess nice, comfy forest hills life, cars, etc, is pretty much over, unless “daddy” or “favorite “uncle” or someone is a big shot lawyer- which probably is-
    tipical example of spoiled , idiotical kid
    unfortunately , innocent people are getting injured
    i do hope that the poor victim will fully recover, and when you do that, sue and get everything they got
    good luck

    • misha

      I THINK YOUR A HATERRR!!!!!! of all those who live in forest hills.. and this couldve happen to anyone!
