Darren Drake, a 32-year-old New Jersey man, was named as one of eight people killed when a rental truck sped through a Manhattan bike lane.
Drake, of New Milford, was riding his bicycle when a truck driven by 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov rammed crowds of pedestrians and riders on a popular Tribeca bike path Tuesday.
Drake was former president of the New Milford Board of Education and was most recently a program manager at Moody’s Analytics. He graduated from Rutgers.
Drake was one of two Americans killed in the attack; the identity of the second has not been released. The other six fatalities included five Argentines celebrating a graduation anniversary and a Belgian national. Six of the victims died at the scene; the other two died at hospitals. source
