Six-year-old Sebastian Colon lights a candle last night at a makeshift memorial near the scene where his father, Miguel (inset), was fatally mowed down pushing him clear of an speeding car. (NY Post)

From NYPost.com:

A driver who had been fighting with his wife in the parking lot of a Chuck E. Cheese cut a path of destruction through The Bronx yesterday, ramming cars and killing a father — who died pushing his 6-year-old boy to safety, cops said.

Mark St. Pierre, 36, of The Bronx, injured 13 people in a 20-block demolition derby before cops arrested him, po lice said.

The bizarre violence started at the children’s pizza restaurant on Gun Hill Road near Ely Avenue in Baychester at about 5:45 p.m.

St. Pierre got into a 2008 Infiniti and sped west on Gun Hill Road, a witness said.

    I didn’t think true heroes existed anymore. He sacrificed his own life for his child’s. It’s sad to think that I know there are parents out there who actually WOULDN’T do that. But he is truly God’s child for what he did. R.i.P.

    Why are people so weak ? hanging their self or attempting suicide over a female or a male. I hope the driver ends up as some ones b***h in prison.

    This man is a true hero. The driver had no regards for anyones life not even his own. This world is crazy. Now this young boy has to grow up without a father. This was a senseless act. My heart and prayers go out to this young child and to the entire family. R.I.P MIGUEL

    He aint no damn hero that was his son. Any naga that wouldn’t do that for their child aint fit to live

    What’s heroic is a brotha runnin threw newyork saving people during the demolition of the trade center september 11th. And when they do the movie they cast a kkkracka as the HERO saving ppl

    Nat turner denmark vesy. Gabriel proser. Markus garvey. Tousaint l’ovature. Osceola. Dr khalid muhammad. Hewey newton. Malcolm x robert mugabe. Fanz fanon. And a host of others are true HEROS

    I have read the comments to this story. I agree with everyone that says that this father is a hero. He is a hero, because he sacrificed his life for his child. Yes that is what a true father or mother is supposed to do. I hope that his little boy knows how much his father truly loved him. My prayers go out to this family and all the other families effected by the ignorance of selfish and disturbed man. I hope that he gets what he deserves inside of the prison walls.

    Wow. He saved his son. I pray that his son will grow up to be a great man like his father. THe love between a father and a son is so beautiful, we hardly see it. Too many sons grow up in a single parent(usually the mother) household.
