Horrific Video Shows Car Wash Worker Getting Killed In Hit And Run In The Bronx

A 47-year-old man doing his job at a Bronx car wash was killed Sunday in a fatal hit-and-run, the second one in less than a year on the same block.

Felix Thomas Bontia, of Allerton, was drying off a customer’s Toyota Rav4 SUV early Sunday morning at the Speedway car wash, on Webster Avenue in Concourse Village, when the driver of a Ford Escape SUV smashed into the Toyota and pinned Bontia between the two vehicles before he collapsed to the ground.

EMS transported Bontia to Lincoln Hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.

Cops say the Ford driver was traveling southbound on Webster Avenue when they veered into the bus lane, where the Toyota was parked while being dried off. The force of the collision caused the Toyota to pummel into a parked Nissan Altima sedan, which was unoccupied. The Toyota driver was taken to Saint Barnabas Hospital with minor injuries, and is listed in stable condition.
