A terrible incident unfolded in Brooklyn on Thursday, claiming the life of a 77-year-old man. Iosif Lontsman tragically lost his life after a disagreement with another driver over a parking spot turned into a devastating event.
Authorities report that Lontsman exited his Subaru Forester, apparently forgetting to shift it out of gear, to approach a 43-year-old woman in a Nissan Altima regarding the parking space at the intersection of Avenue W and Ocean Avenue in Sheepshead Bay. As he stepped out, the Subaru began to roll forward, striking Lontsman before colliding with the Nissan.
The force of the incident left Lontsman pinned between the vehicles, according to a preliminary investigation by the NYPD. Sadly, first responders found him unresponsive and suffering from severe head and body trauma. Despite being rushed to NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn, he was pronounced dead.
