According to police, Kevin Crosby was speeding in a Hyundai Tucson on Thursday night in the bus lane on West 125th Street when he struck two men on e-bikes outside the Apollo Theater. The Hyundai continued then struck an unoccupied NYPD vehicle, which was pushed into a parked car with two people inside. The car then hit an unoccupied tractor-trailer.<\/p>\n
One of the e-bike riders, 28-year-old Darly Zacarius of The Bronx, was killed. The second e-bike rider, a 33-year-old man, was critically injured.<\/p>\n
Zacarias, a delivery driver from Highbridge, was described by family and neighbors as a hard worker and one of the kindest people they knew. He had only been working as a delivery driver for a couple of months. His family said they never imagined that riding a bike, making deliveries and trying to earn a living would end in tragedy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe feel really bad because he will never come back,\u201d said Radhames Zacarias in Spanish.<\/p>\n
Zacarias\u2019 family, originally from the Dominican Republic, is now working to arrange funeral services and hopes to bring him back there for burial.<\/p>\n
