Scooter-Riding DJ Killed By Mack Truck Near Central Park: NYPD, Report

NEW YORK CITY — A scooter-riding DJ died after a Mack truck driver plowed over her near Central Park, according to police and reports.

Anastasia Ledwith — a 57-year-old woman known professionally as DJ Stacey — was found dead early Saturday along West 76th Street, a block from her home, the New York Daily News first reported.

Ledwith's wife, Valerie Perez, told the Daily News that she was a beloved DJ who used a scooter for the 15 years they were together.

"She was super good at it," Perez said, according to the Daily News.

NYPD officials believe Ledwith drove her scooter on that street about 2:40 a.m. when she crossed paths with a Mack tractor truck near Central Park West.

She tried to pass the oil delivery truck, when her scooter hit its side and caused her to fall under the truck's tires, the Daily News reported.

The truck's driver — a 50-year-old man — didn't know he struck something until a made a turn onto Central Park West, despite the scooter being stuck under his truck and sending up sparks, according to the report.

He stopped at the scene, where medics pronounced Ledwith dead, police said.

No arrests have been made and an investigation is ongoing, authorities said.
