A 13-year-old girl was killed when the speeding car she was traveling in slammed into a Marine Park house on Sunday afternoon. A 16-year-old is now facing charges of criminally negligent homicide, reckless driving, speeding and operating a motor vehicle out of class for being behind the wheel illegally.

Around 1:45 p.m., 16-year-old Eric Hakimisefat was zooming down East 23rd Street at around 63 mph – double the speed limit – when he lost control of the minivan he was driving. The van slammed into a parked car, hit a tree and ricocheted into the porch of 1620 East 23rd Street, reports say.

“It was this huge, colossal crash,” one neighbor told the [Daily News](http://www.nydailynews.com/ny%5Flocal/2010/10/03/2010-10-03%5Fspeeding%5Fteen%5Fdrives%5Fminivan%5Finto%5Fbrooklyn%5Fhouse%5Fkilling%5F13yearold%5Ffemale%5Fpassen.html?ref=bklyner.com#ixzz11PLxu4Q6). “You couldn’t fathom exactly what happened.”

In addition to Hakimisefat, the car carried a 16-year-old friend and the friend’s 13-year-old sister, Sarah Erdan.

Hakimisefat and the other 16-year-old survived the crash, but Erdan died of major head injuries at Kings County Hospital.

Hakimisefat has only a junior driver’s permit, which requires a parent or guardian to be with him when he drives. He was taken into custody by officers of the 61st Precinct.
