A young man, aged 18, lost his life in a tragic accident when the motorbike he was operating along with a 14-year-old girl collided with a minivan at an intersection in Bronx. The incident occurred on Monday evening, as reported by the authorities.

The boy was driving the motorcycle towards the east on East 172nd Street, with the teenage girl as a passenger, at approximately 6:45 p.m. The collision took place when they struck a Honda Odyssey that was heading north on Metcalf Avenue in the Soundview area, according to the police statement.

Both teens were thrown from the bike and rushed to Jacobi Hospital.

The older victim succumbed to his injuries while the girl was in stable condition, police said.

The 42-year-old male driver of the Honda minivan stayed at the location after the accident. Currently, no arrests have been made as investigators are looking into the details of the event that led to the tragic crash.

Photos from the scene show a large crack in the windshield of the Honda and a bike lying on the side of the road.

The identity of the fatal victim was not revealed early Tuesday morning pending family notification.
