23-Year-Old Seriously Injured In Hit-Run Greenburgh Crash on Old Kensico Rd

A 23-year-old Greenburgh man was seriously injured during a hit-and-run incident on Old Kensico Road late last night by a vehicle that fled the scene, leaving the victim with serious injuries. 

The incident took place around 11:07 p.m., Sunday, Sept. 15, when Greenburgh Police came upon a pedestrian who had just been struck by a motor vehicle on Old Kensico Road where it intersects with Randolph Road, said Greenburgh Police Lt. Kobie Powell.The victim, a resident of Old Kensico Road, had been dropped off by a friend and was crossing Old Kensico Road behind the friend's vehicle when a dark-colored vehicle traveling southbound on Old Kensico Road struck the victim propelling him into an adjacent driveway, Powell said.The vehicle that struck him stopped momentarily and then fled the accident scene southbound on Old Kensico Road, leaving the victim with sustained head injuries. He was transported by Greenburgh EMS to the Westchester County Medical Center, where he was admitted.The Fulton Park Civic Association and the Council of Greenburgh Civic Association have been at numerous Town Board meetings pleading with the Supervisor and his Board to install sidewalks along Old Kensico Road before something bad happens. Too late. They need to find a solution for speeding and resume engaging in traffic enforcement. Traffic enforcement has been abandoned for over a year now. The neighborhood also has many young kids walking to and from school and to bus stops early and in the afternoon without an adult present along Old Kensico Road. In fact, one of the stops is at this actual accident location. This situation needs to change. It's the only way to get A Better Greenburgh.
