A 22-year-old man was fatally struck by two cars – including a BMW with a drunk driver behind the wheel – just steps from his Bronx home over the weekend, cops said.
Wilbert De Jesus Cordero was crossing White Plains Road mid-block, near Archer Street, around 4 a.m. Sunday when a 24-year-old man driving a Mercedes southbound struck him, authorities said.
The impact hurled Cordero into the northbound lanes of White Plains Road, where alleged drunk driver Adam Vilajeti – behind the wheel of a 2017 BMW – rammed into him, police said.
