EMS responded to the scene and transported him to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, with severe body trauma, where he was pronounced dead.

Tarry, according to family member, was popping a wheelie when the accident occurred, reported the  NY DailyNews. The NYPD has not confirmed whether that was the case, and the investigation as to the exact cause of the crash remains ongoing.
