The grief-stricken mother of one of two teenage girls who were fatally struck while riding an e-bike in New Jersey this week said her daughter was her “best friend” who “cared deeply for everyone around her” while speaking out publicly for the first time Thursday.
Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas, both 17, were killed on Monday after authorities said a Jeep Compass struck them while they were riding the e-bike on a residential street in Cranford.
