Man Killed In Crash On Henry Hudson Parkway Near Dyckman: Police

INWOOD, NY — A 39-year-old man is dead after a scary car crash earlier in July on the Henry Hudson Parkway near the Dyckman Street entrance ramp, police announced on Thursday.

The man was driving a Dodge Viper southbound on the parkway on July 11 at "an apparent high rate of speed" when he clipped a Subaru Crossstrek traveling in the same direction, police said. The collision caused the Dodge Viper to jump the left shoulder barrier, strike a protruding rock on the side of the road, and flip.

The overturned car then reentered the Henry Hudson Parkway and sideswiped a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox, before coming to a final rest on its roof, police said.

Police arrived to find the 39-year-old driver of the Dodge Viper with severe trauma to his head and body. He was taken to Mount Sinai Saint Luke's Hospital, where he died 13 days later on July 24, NYPD said.

All other parties in the three-way crash were uninjured and refused medical attention at the scene.

The identity of the 39-year-old is pending proper family notification.
