A motorcyclist critically injured last weekend in a crash in Valley Stream has died, Nassau police said on Sunday.
Daniel Berrios of Cedarhurst, 47, was driving a motorcycle north on Mill Road at about 8:15 a.m. on April 2, when he was struck by a 2010 Honda Civic traveling south on the same road.
The 72-year-old male driver was attempting to make a left turn onto Birch Lane, police said. Berrios was taken to a hospital and the Honda driver remained on the scene.
Elsewhere in Nassau, on Saturday at about 7:20 p.m., a 28-year-old man driving a 2005 Yamaha motorcycle west on Hempstead Turnpike near the intersection with Plainfield Avenue in Elmont was involved in a collision with an eastbound 2017 Hyundai SUV, police said in a news release.
The motorcyclist, whose identity was not released by police, suffered serious injuries and was taken to a hospital, where he was in stable condition. The SUV driver, a 20-year-old man, stayed at the scene, according to police.
