Teen in horrific Queens mowdown is on the mend

She doesn’t remember flying — only landing.

“It all happened so fast,” plucky 13-year-old Angie Pena told The Post from her hospital bed of being flung airborne when an SUV plowed into a crowd of middle-schoolers at a Queens intersection on Thursday.

“It was really surprising and scary,” the teen said of the morning accident, which was caught on chilling sidewalk surveillance video.

“It all just came out of nowhere,” recalled Pena, who has been bedbound with a broken pelvis for three days in the intensive-care unit of Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center.

“I was on the street, and then all of a sudden I was on the ground,” she recalled.

The video shows her chatting happily with a couple of pals — en route to her fourth day as an eighth-grader at the Frank Sansivieri Intermediate School — as the 2-ton Honda Pilot ominously rolls up from behind.

Driver Francis Lu hit the gas instead of the brake of his SUV as he tried to park at Grand Avenue and 71st Street in Maspeth, police said.

He is not expected to be charged criminally, police said, although the accident is being investigated by the NYPD’s collision-investigation squad, as is routine in accidents that cause serious injury or death.

Lu’s car struck Pena first, then barreled into four other students.

“She was bleeding,” Diku Sherpa, 13, said of her fallen classmate.

“She said she couldn’t feel her right leg. She said her back was hurting.”

Pena is counting her blessings.

“I don’t have to have a cast” or surgery, she said. “I just have to lay in bed. I’m feeling really good, though.”

The other two most seriously injured kids, Marina Abadir, 14, and Ashley Khan, 13, were pinned under the car and are being treated for broken bones at Elmhurst Hospital.
