A 57yr old man riding his bicycle westbound on Avenue I in Brooklyn on Sunday January 6, 2019, was rushed to Maimonides Hospital in critical condition with head trauma after the driver of a parked black Ford Explorer SUV opened his door as the man was going by.
The bicyclist vaulted over the door and landed on his head. According to the NYPD, the driver of the SUV was later arrested due to Open Warrants not related to the crash. The NYPD did not provide information as to the nature of these Warrants. The Investigation into the crash itself is ongoing.
