Manhattan, NY – A 60-year-old man died when a truck collided with his car in Midtown at around 8:00 a.m. on November 16. The fatal crash unfolded as a 33-year-old man, driving a Western Star trailer truck headed east on West 34th Street, ignored a steady red light and slammed into a 2015 Ford Mustang. The elderly driver got ejected from his car and was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he could not be saved.
