A Bronx driver fatally struck a man on a scooter with her car in a suspected road rage attack, police sources said Sunday.
Victim Robert Jimenez, 23, was arguing with a 28-year-old woman driving a Honda Civic before she struck him on Fox St. near Intervale Ave. in Longwood about 2:20 p.m. Saturday, cops said.
Both Jimenez and the Honda driver were headed south on Fox and cops are investigating if the driver was chasing Jimenez when she hit him, sources said. Investigators believe the two were strangers.
Medics rushed Jimenez to Lincoln Hospital but he couldn’t be saved. He was about two miles from home when he was struck, according to cops.
Police took the woman into custody. She remains hospitalized and has not yet been charged with a crime.
