A Hampton Bays man was killed Monday afternoon in a two-vehicle crash in Manorville, according to detectives from the Suffolk County Police Department's Seventh Squad.

Michael Forman, 63, was driving a 2021 Ford F-150 west on Sunrise Highway, between the William Floyd Parkway and Wading River Road at 12:40 p.m., when his vehicle sideswiped a 2022 Nissan Sentra, police said.

Forman’s vehicle then struck a tree on the north side of the road while the Nissan hit the guide wire in the median, authorities said.

Forman was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the second car was taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries.

Both drivers were alone in their vehicles.

All westbound lanes at Wading River Road were closed for several hours as police conducted an investigation. The road reopened around 5:30 p.m.
