NYC delivery man on e-bike strikes tot and mom in hit-and-run, cops say
A deliveryman on a bicycle rammed into a mom pushing her 2-year-old son in a stroller in Lower Manhattan — throwing the tot from his carriage, police said Friday.
The 42-year-old mom was walking with her son at Park Avenue and Broadway around 8:30 a.m. Saturday when the man on an electric bike, who is believed to have been working for Grubhub, struck them, cops said.
The stroller was knocked over from the impact, and the boy was thrown to the ground, police said.
Both the mother and her son were taken to Bellevue Hospital, where they were listed in stable condition.
The cyclist, who was initially heading south on Broadway, drove off in the other direction and did not exchange his information with the mom, cops said.
The NYPD released a surveillance image of the suspect Thursday night, and identified him as a possible Grubhub delivery driver.
