On Monday, December 23, 2024, at approximately 9:15 p.m., the Clarkstown Police Department responded to a motor vehicle accident involving two vehicles near the intersection of Route 304 and Second St. in New City.
Preliminary investigation reveals that the driver and sole occupant of a 2010 black Hyundai sedan, a 35-year-old male from Ohio, turned onto Route 304, traveling northbound in the southbound lanes. The Hyundai struck a 2013 silver BMW head-on which was traveling southbound. The BMW was occupied by an 18-year-old male driver and his 16-year-old female front seat passenger.
The collision occurred with such force that it sent the Hyundai into the center median, while the BMW was forced onto the shoulder of the southbound lanes. The New City Fire Department worked rigorously to extricate all three individuals from their vehicles. The Clarkstown Police, New City Ambulance, Nanuet Community Ambulance Corps, and Rockland Paramedics were on the scene to provide immediate medical care.
The occupants of the BMW were successfully extricated and transported by ambulance to Westchester Medical Center with serious physical injuries. The driver of the Hyundai, whose identity is being withheld at this time pending family notification, was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The Clarkstown Police Department’s Accident Investigation Unit is actively investigating the cause of this incident. Anyone who may have witnessed the accident or has other information with regards to this accident is asked to contact the Clarkstown Police Detective Bureau at (845) 639-5800.
Our deepest sympathies go out to the families involved during this incredibly difficult time, especially as they face this tragic event during the holiday season.
