The man killed when the driver of a U-Haul truck went on a nearly hourlong rampage through Brooklyn was a 44-year-old food delivery worker and single father of three.
FILE -Erafin Yaz, 25, looks from his roof at the caution tape covering the corner of Bay Ridge Avenue and 5th Avenue where pedestrians were struck Monday, Feb. 13, 2023, in the Brooklyn borough of New York. Delivery worker YiJie Ye was struck and killed by a U-Haul truck during a miles-long rampage, that barreled into bicyclists, moped riders, a police car and one pedestrian.
Ye arrived from China 18 years ago and made a living scooting from place to place to deliver food. When business was slow, he’d collect recyclables from city streets to supplement his income, said Chen, who owns the Brooklyn apartment building where Ye lived with his children, 2 miles from where he was run down.
That many of the U-Haul’s victims were on bikes or scooters was not lost on those who make a living delivering food and groceries. After he was struck by the U-Haul, Ye wasn't able to speak and authorities had trouble tracking his next of kin.
