An elderly e-bike rider died from his injuries nearly three weeks after an SUV driver slammed into him on a Brooklyn street.
Teddy Orzechowski, 73, of Bayside died Thursday at about 11:05 a.m., nineteen days after the May 12 collision in Greenpoint.
The septuagenarian was riding his e-bike west on Driggs Ave. when a 62-year-old man driving a 2017 Infiniti QX6 SUV heading south on Monitor St. struck him at the crossing intersection at about 4:22 p.m.
Medics rushed Orzechowski to Elmhurst Hospital Center where he was initially listed in stable condition.
The Infiniti driver was unscathed in the collision and remained on scene afterwards. Charges were not immediately filed against him and the investigation remains ongoing.
