Crosby then allegedly crashed into an unoccupied police car, sending the police car crashing into another parked car with two occupants, according to the NYPD. Crosby allegedly kept driving, crashing into an unoccupied trailer and a third car driven by a 40-year-old.
Both e-bike riders were taken to the hospital, where 28-year-old Darly Zacarias was pronounced dead. The second cyclist, a 33-year-old man, was in critical condition.
