A 75-year-old Elmhurst man died on Saturday, 10 days after he was struck by an e-bike rider while walking in the vicinity of Roosevelt Avenue and Broadway in Jackson Heights.
Kabrinda Nath Sen succumbed to his injuries at Elmhurst Hospital, a block away from his home on Ithaca Street, according to the NYPD.
Sen was struck in broad daylight in front of the Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Avenue/74th Street subway station at around 12:15 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 27, authorities said.
Police from the 115th Precinct in Jackson Heights responded to a 911 call of a pedestrian stuck at the intersection and found the senior with injuries to his head. EMS rushed him to Elmhurst Hospital in critical condition. He died on Jan. 6, police said.
Further investigation by the NYPD’s Highway District Collision Investigation Squad determined that Sen was crossing Roosevelt Avenue at Broadway when a cyclist riding an e-bike westbound on Roosevelt Avenue plowed into him. Sen’s head stuck the pavement, ultimately killing him.
The cyclist remained at the scene and was not arrested, police said Wednesday.

The "cyclist" wasn't arrested. Why the hell not ?
Last year, car crashes killed 124 pedestrians, 50 motorcyclists, 19 cyclists and 15 people on mopeds and ebikes in New York City. Why are you reporting an e-bike crash?
After good behavior, The Queens DA office will reward him with two Met tickets.
All TA members should be feeling deep shame right now.
What a shameful way to treat citizens of our once great city.
It would be nice to know that someone is held accountable for these killings. Transportation Alternatives, you have blood on your hands. By empowering these outlaws and enabling them, you and the elected officials who support you are responsible for the death of this innocent senior.
NYC's Race To The Bottom !
This should have never happened.
This one was probably another one of Joe Hidens prized illegals that Just crossed the border.

Migrants R Us...coming to a neighborhood near you.
There are no excuses for bike violence.
Result of DEI leadership. RIP
As much as I loved NYC there isn’t a chance of me ever visiting again. If family wants to see me they know where I live.
This Wild West unregulated ebike shit must stop NOW.
Mayor Night Life do something !
I’ve come very close to being run over several times by the illegals on their bikes who completely disregard traffic rules. Your head needs to be on a swivel now walking in NYC.
Bill DeBlasshole created this moped mess
Sounds like it is time for some moped-control laws.
Criminals now hide behind the legal systems. But the police know who they are but are hamstrung and unable to execute any kind of real justice.

Something is terribly wrong in society.
