Suffolk County Police First Squad detectives are investigating a single-car crash that killed a man in North Babylon.
A man was traveling on Deer Park Avenue in a 1995 Toyota Corolla that was recently reported stolen, when he was involved in a motor vehicle crash at the intersection of Simon Street and Deer Park Avenue in North Babylon. The man fled the scene northbound on Deer Park Avenue and a few minutes later the vehicle which was apparently traveling at a high rate of speed, left the roadway and struck a utility pole in front of 690 Deer Park Avenue. The driver, who has not been identified, was pronounced dead at the scene by a physician assistant from the Office of the Suffolk County Medical Examiner.
