A bicyclist who was killed Monday on a Brooklyn street was deliberately run over by a driver who said the man had tried to break into his car, New York police say.
Donald Roberts, 47, was fatally struck by an SUV around 6 a.m. in the Broadway Triangle neighborhood. Now facing murder charges is Korey Johnson, 41, of Brooklyn.
Johnson told police that minutes earlier he had caught the man trying to break into his parked Jeep Grand Cherokee. When Johnson and his girlfriend confronted him, the burglar slashed at them with a screwdriver, injuring the woman. He then sped off on his bicycle.
Johnson allegedly pursued the man. Surveillance video shows a black SUV slamming the bicyclist into a row of parked cars on Broadway near Ellery. The force of the crash flips the SUV onto its side.
Roberts was declared dead at a hospital. Johnson was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder and first-degree manslaughter.
The dead man had an extensive rap sheet and was just nine months out of prison, the New York Daily News reported. Besides the screwdriver, he was in possession of two car stereos when he was struck.
