Cranford double teen killings: 18-year-old Battiloro charged as adult
An 18-year-old Vincent Battiloro was charged as an adult with two counts of first-degree murder for allegedly deliberately driving a Jeep into two 17-year-old girls in Cranford, NJ, in September 2025. Police say dash-cam video shows him accelerating toward the victims and fleeing the scene, and prosecutors noted he bragged on a livestream about the attention he was receiving. Battiloro’s case was moved to adult court on June 26, and the victims were Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas.
