Deadly hit and run in Brooklyn

BROOKLYN Police say the victim was crossing Rockaway Parkway Wednesday night when he was hit, not once, but twice.

Police believe the victim Michael Sterling was trying to cross the six lane street when 39-year-old got struck by the Lincoln LS. The force of the impact was so severe it knocked Sterling into the northbound lanes where he was struck by a black sedan. Police say that driver took off.

EMS crews took Sterling to Brookdale Hospital where he later died.

Police continue their investigation.

No arrests have been made.
