STONY POINT, N.Y. (1010 WINS) -- Knowing that his wife was planning her suicide, a 34-year-old architect stepped out of their minivan on a mountainside above the Hudson River and let her drive over the 300-foot cliff with their two daughters in the back seat, police said Friday.
Hejin Han's death-wish plunge down the side of Bear Mountain on Wednesday was successful; she died at the scene. The children, buckled into their car seats, somehow survived without serious injury.
He did not explain why the girls, 5-year-old Ariana and 3-year-old Itana, were left inside the vehicle.
Police who interrogated Han after his 35-year-old wife's death said he drove her to Bear Mountain State Park, 45 miles north of New York City, on Wednesday knowing she wanted to commit suicide there _ and knowing she had earlier threatened to harm the children.
Detective Sgt. Steven Huff of the state park police said in the criminal complaint that at about 5:30 p.m., Han parked the 2003 Honda Odyssey near the cliff, then got out and walked away.
Park police Col. James Warwick said Hejin Han moved into the driver's seat, shifted the minivan into gear and drove between two of the boulders that are placed along the cliff to keep cars from skidding off.
He said Victor Han ``watched the vehicle go over.'' more at link:http://www.1010wins.com/pages/47380.php
