*** Cops in Crown Heights are looking for the driver of a white van that was seen speeding away from the area where a Hasidic man was killed while parking his car early Tuesday.

A Chevy box van was caught on videotape moments after Frederick Klein, 47, was shot on Carroll Street, between Schenectady and Utica avenues around 1:10 a.m., police said yesterday.

There is a $12,000 reward for clues leading to Klein’s killer.
