A pedestrian was fatally struck by an unlicensed SUV driver in Middle Village Thursday night.

The victim, a 57-year-old man, was on the roadway in the vicinity of Metropolitan Avenue and Rentar Plaza when he was hit by a 2007 Cadillac Escalade driven by a 46-year-old man, according to police.

Police responded to a 911 call at around 7:45 p.m. and upon arrival, found the victim lying on the road with body trauma.

The victim was transported by EMS to NYC Health & Hospitals/ Elmhurst where he was pronounced dead.

The driver of the Escalade, who is from 75th Street in Middle Village, was arrested and charged with driving without a license.

This is pretty sad. Here in NYC, one is rarely held accountable.
Just a governor every now and then...

Since the media and police are banned from disclosing let us guess.
A: An illegal who don't belong in this country.
B: A person released from jail, license suspended for his 3rd or more DWI

Let me guess, no green card either.

I bet he's more than an unlicensed driver - but who cares, it's NYC.

Another car zealot on the loose. I'm sure if he did happen to have a licence, it would be called an unfortunate accident, and he'd be a free man. Ready to kill again.
The licence means nothing. "Drive around the block and park the car. Here's your licence, sir/ma'am".
Prove me wrong ...

Did the Police check to see if a white supremacist driver was responsible ?

I spoke with a cop neighbor here on City Island, he says cops don't want to make traffic stops and arrests because the don't want to be reprimanded and personally sued when this new DA or some liberal judge throws out the case.
He says:
The driver was likely high or drunk as a skunk.
Under new police restrictions cops must actually see who was driving to even do a road sobriety or breathalyzer. Witnesses don't matter
If an arrest is made otherwise the black rouge DA or judge throws out the case, pro-bono lawyers come out the woodwork to sue the cops on behalf of the person arrested.
Cops must then pay a huge $$ cash settlement out their own pocket, or 2: pay a defense lawyer and go to trial. Odds are they will lose especially if the driver is black, lose pensions and retirement too!!
This is because NY City caved to BLM and all the other activists and banned qualified immunity for police officers. Cops are afraid to make arrests.
Its this way with all arrests and a huge part why the nutters, druggies and criminals now own the streets, parks and subways.

The governor needs to put her airplane joyrides away, step in and rescind this along with booting the lousy activist DA if law and order is to be restored.
Based on actions this new black Adams family administration is hands down much worse and more corrupt then deBlasio.
People need to hammer the governors office and reps in Albany.

@Joe

1. Bragg is the DA of Manhattan, not Queens.

2. Qualified Immunity was only partially rescinded in NYC, applicable to unreasonable searches and seizures, see https://www.forbes.com/sites/nicksibilla/2021/04/29/new-york-city-limits-qualified-immunity-makes-it-easier-to-sue-cops-who-use-excessive-force/?sh=7a2cde0067e9

3. Cops would only have to pay if they actually did something wrong. Their union's lawyer will defend them otherwise. So, the simple solution is to fully understand the laws they are supposed to enforce and not violate anyone's constitutional rights. You know how the conservatives love to say "just comply"? That works both ways, not just cop to citizen.

4. Your racism is showing. I agree Bragg is a moron and Adams is corrupt. But by prefacing both men with "black" you're implying that they're bad because they're black.
