A Long Island driver killed in a two-vehicle accident after he ran a red light was identified as Leonor Parra-Nunez, 61. The accident happened in Calverton around 6:14 a.m., on Thursday, April 1.

Parra-Nunez from Coram was operating a 1997 Nissan Maxima northbound on Burman Boulevard when failed to stop at a red light at Route 25. His car was then struck by a 2010 Chevrolet Equinox in Calverton, that was going eastbound, Riverhead Police Det. Michael Schmidt informed. 

The thirty-three-year-old driver of the Chevrolet, identified as Ronaldo Ajcuc-Chemale from Calverton, was treated at the scene and taken to Peconic Bay Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries.

Parra-Nunez who was extricated from his car by the Wading River Fire Department was also taken to Peconic Bay Medical Center where he later died from his injuries. The investigation showed that the Long Island driver killed in the crash had failed to stop at the red light. The police are asking any witnesses of the crash to call detectives at 631-727-4500.

One of the most common reasons for accidents is not stopping at the red light. Such accidents lead to hard collisions and severe injuries; it’s not uncommon for drivers and passengers to die in such crashes. If you were involved in a similar accident, where you have crashed a car that didn’t stop at a red light, even though it is clear that you were not at fault, make sure to contact a car accident lawyer as soon as you can. The outcomes of the accidents could be harsh for you as well (injuries, damages), so it’s better to start the legal process with a skilled and experienced attorney.

Your injuries, lost wages and damages, as well as pain and suffering, should also be covered by a compensation claim. Don’t go alone against the insurers. Contact Cellino Law and schedule your free case review with a New York car accident lawyer
