Police ID suspect in accident that killed expecting Williamsburg couple

Julio Acevedo
Cops say that 44-year-old Julio Acevedo, pictured here, was the driver of the car that killed Nachman and Raizy Glauber this weekend.

Cops have released a photo of a man they say was the driver in the Saturday night hit-and-run that killed an expecting Williamsburg couple.

Police say Julio Acevedo, 44, was the man behind the wheel of the BMW that killed 21-year-old Nachman and Raizy Glauber.

Raizy Glauber was six months pregnant. The couple was reportedly on their way to the hospital for a checkup with an OB/GYN.

Doctors at Bellevue Hospital were able to deliver the couple’s baby boy post-mortem via C-section, but the child died early Monday morning.

Local Williamsburg City Council members are offering a $5,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the driver or passenger of the vehicle that killed the Glaubers. The suspects fled the scene on foot after the accident, but cops were able to find the vehicle’s owner using the New York state license plate on the car left behind.
