Hit-and-run driver mows down 55-year-old man crossing Brooklyn street
A hit-and-run driver killed a 55-year-old man crossing a Brooklyn street early Saturday, police said. It was one of two fatal crashes to take place Saturday morning in the five boroughs, police said. The victim was crossing Washington Ave. at Fulton St. in Clinton Hill about 12:20 a.m. when a burgundy-colored Ford Explorer heading west on Fulton St. rammed into him, cops said. The driver of the Ford Explorer sped off without stopping, stunned witnesses told police. EMS rushed the victim to New York Presbyterian-Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, but he couldn't be saved. The man's name was not immediately released as cops tracked down family members. No arrests have been made. In an unrelated incident about an hour after the Clinton Hill crash, a 22-year-old driver died when his Infiniti G37 veered into oncoming traffic and slammed into a parked city sanitation truck in Queens, cops said. The motorist was heading north on Douglaston Parkway outside Alley Pond Park in Bayside about 1:45 a.m. when he listed into the southbound lane — straight into the front of an unoccupied city sanitation truck outside the city Department of Sanitation's Queens garage. He died at the scene. His name was not immediately released. No other cars were involved in the crash, cops said. Saturday's crash in Brooklyn was the second fatal hit-and-run in the borough in a week, cops said. On May 10, Larry Maxwell was crossing the street outside his longtime home in Brownsville's Langston Hughes Houses to attend a family event at the nearby Dr. Green Playground when he was struck by a driver fleeing a fender-bender. The driver has not been caught, cops said. The city has seen a 19% decrease in fatal crashes this year, although the number of pedestrians killed by motor vehicles have increased slightly, cops said. As of Thursday, cops have investigated 40 fatal pedestrian crashes — two more than this time last year, according to police.
