Derrick Cristobal (right and left with his family), 31, of Elmhurst, New York, lost control of the e-Scooter he was riding on December 19 and was thrown to the pavement. According to police, he sustained head injuries but was up and alert after the crash. Unfortunately, his illness worsened while he was in hospital. He was yawning, sleeping when my sister arrived to the hospital.' He didn't remember my sister and he wasn't talking, but you could tell him he [didn't] recognize anyone,' said his brother Arrizon Cristobal, 26, who was 26 years old. Mr Cristobal had been on his way to pick up his toddler daughter, Elizabeth, 2, when he crashed. Vanessa Balondo (left), Elizabeth's mother, reported how her husband gradually lost consciousness, but she said that even the hospital wasn't sure what happened to her partner.

The man was seen heading north on Chrystie Street and crashing Priscilla Loke, who was approaching the intersection on Grand Street around 10.27 a.m. on Saturday. After the crash, the perpetrator attempted to prop her up against a plastic barrier. In the video, the perpetrator is seen walking across the street to a NYPD vehicle and chatting with police officers. He then walked away, and as the cops approached, the criminal jumped back on his e-bike and left the scene. He was passed by an officer who didn't appear to have tried to stop him in the video. Loke was taken to Bellevue Hospital and died three days later.
