Cyclist and Father of Two Died in Bronx Crash, a Day Before Father’s Day

The Bronx, NY – Father’s Day did not come for a 43-year-old avid bicyclist who joined his pals for a bike ride to Orchard Beach Saturday, June 20. At approximately 5:10 in the afternoon, the group of cyclists was pedaling over the Pelham Bridge’s walkway when the victim lost control of his pedal-assist electric bicycle and lurched into the roadway. Suddenly, a Jeep Wrangler with a 28-year-old man behind the wheel, crashed into the male cyclist, causing major head injuries. Despite life-saving measures performed by the doctors at Jacobi Medical Center, the male cyclist was pronounced dead.

It is critically important that both cyclists and motor vehicle drivers on the road keep safety and precaution in mind.
