Two Rosedale men were killed Friday night when the white Ford Mustang they were in slammed into a concrete wall adjacent to the Long Island Rail Road yard in Hollis, police said.
The driver, Sean Wallace, 29, and Shawn Grey, 25, who was in the back seat, died in the head-on crash on Liberty Avenue, police said. A Brooklyn teen in the front passenger seat remained in critical but stable condition at Mary Immaculate Hospital in Jamaica Tuesday, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Wallace, of 257-20 Craft Ave. in Rosedale, was driving west on Liberty Avenue about 10:20 p.m. when he went under the LIRR underpass at Dunkirk Avenue and tried to avoid another car at 183rd Street, police said. Wallace swerved and lost control of the Mustang, slamming into a three-foot high concrete barrier surrounding the Hillside Maintenance Complex of the LIRR, police said.
It was unclear how fast the car was traveling, police said.
Wallace was pronounced dead at Mary Immaculate Hospital about 12:15 a.m. Saturday, while Grey made it to Jamaica Hospital before dying, police said.
The third man, Michael Fuller, Jr., 17, was treated for a broken leg and arm at Mary Immaculate Hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said.
The families were unavailable to comment on the accident.
