{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The driver behind the wheel of a car that struck and killed three Florida teens waiting for a bus to a soccer tournament Saturday was reportedly an exotic dancer with a suspended license who cops claimed reeked of alcohol.
Gideon Desir, 13, Lens Desir, 15, and Richcarde Dumay, 17, were killed early Saturday as they stood on a sidewalk at a North Miami bus stop. Police have not identified the driver in the incident, but The Miami Herald, citing sources with knowledge of the case, named 31-year-old Mariam Coulibaly as the woman behind the wheel.

“I came from a black out. When I woke up I didn’t even know that I hurt people,” Coulibaly said, according to the Herald.
The driver of the vehicle was taken to the hospital in serious condition, and the Herald quotes Coulibaly describing her injuries: “I shattered my chest. I had surgery on my stomach; shattered my hip."

The three teens were members of the Little Haiti Football Club, which says its mission is to serve at-risk youth in the community.
