A New York City man with nearly two-dozen arrests is facing even more time behind bars for allegedly fatally striking a cancer survivor with his motorcycle last year, according to police. 

Timothy Bohler, 31, is accused of slamming into Lelawattie Narine, 52, with his Jiajue motorcycle in the Bronx at around 8:30 p.m. on March 22, 2024, the New York Daily News reported. The pair reportedly fell into the street, with Bohler abandoning his motorcycle and feeling the scene on foot. 

Narine, who was standing on a nearby street corner at the time of the collision, suffered a severe head injury and was transported to a local hospital in critical condition, according to the outlet. She subsequently died from her injuries two weeks later.

Doctors were reportedly able to reattach three of Young’s fingers following a 13-hour-long surgery. 

Authorities took Bohler into custody weeks later on Feb. 3, and he is charged with assault, attempted assault and criminal possession of a weapon, according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital. He has pleaded not guilty and is expected to return to court on Oct. 21. 

“I just hope they keep him this time because they’re letting them out over and over. I pray this time it sticks. Someone died,” Young’s mother, Kimtreese Young, told The Post. “Maybe this gives my son strength to go get some help. When he couldn’t work for the city anymore, he just gave up. It was like a domino effect.”

Bohler has had numerous run-ins with law enforcement, including an alleged assault on deli workers in the Bronx after he was unable to walk out with a six-pack of beer on credit in 2016, the Post reported. In October 2024, he was arrested for alleged rape, assault, unlawful surveillance and weapons possession, according to the outlet. 

Bohler was also hit with robbery charges after being taken into custody on Rikers Island after he allegedly stole pepper spray from a female corrections officer before spraying her with it on Feb. 10, The Post reported. 

The Queens and Bronx District Attorneys offices did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
