BATON ROUGE - It's still unclear who was driving the car that hit 38-year-old Quiana Brown moments before a BRPD officer ran her over.

Brown was walking along North Foster Drive on Sept. 30 when she was struck by a speeding vehicle. Surveillance footage from a nearby business captured both the initial crash and the moment just minutes later when she was struck by a BRPD officer. 

It was unclear whether she was dead before or after the BRPD unit hit her.

The family's attorney, Yaysha Clark, said the family has been torn apart by tragic loss after Quiana's mother passed away weeks before.

"There really are no words to describe how this family feels," Clark said. 

Balloons scattered the sky and tears poured down cheeks. Brown's cousin, Latonya Darensbourg added how special Quiana was. 

"She was not just a regular person, walking the streets that didn't have family and that wasn't supported," Darensbourg said.

Last Saturday, Quiana was struck by an unknown gray sedan. Police say the car likely now has damage to the hood. 

"It is tragic. We've lost so much, and to lose this young life there's no words," Darensbourg said. "I have no words."

Soon after the incident, the car drove away from the scene. A Baton Rouge Police car responding to the scene, hit Brown again as she lay in the street. It's unknown if Brown was dead before the BRPD unit hit her, but the family wants answers and justice.

"We don't want to send the message to the public that police can do whatever they want and get away with it," Clark said. "So it will have a huge impact, and we will rally behind Quiana Brown until she gets justice, the justice she deserves."
