A man died, his body torn to pieces, when he was struck by multiple drivers on a Bronx expressway, cops said Tuesday.
The victim was hit by several drivers in the center lane of the eastbound Bruckner Expressway near the Stratford Ave. pedestrian overpass about 9:10 p.m. Monday, police said.
When first responders arrived, they found his body torn apart by the passing drivers.
None of the drivers who hit the victim remained at the scene.
Police were trying to identify the victim and want to ascertain how he ended up on that section of expressway, which is bordered by fences and is difficult to get to on foot.
It’s not clear if the victim hopped a fence to get onto the roadway or jumped down from the Stratford Ave. pedestrian overpass, perhaps as a suicide attempt, a police source said.
In 2015, Caje Dawkins, 29, was fatally struck by a driver at the same spot after jumping from the pedestrian overpass onto the roadway below.
