Police identified the 22-year-old Wilmington man who died Thursday afternoon after his gas-powered bike crashed into a car in Newport.

According to Delaware State Police, Nasir Ferrell-Mays was the person riding the bike involved in the June 20 incident. Authorities said Ferrell-Mays was operating a four-stroke mini gas-powered bike westbound on the shoulder of Route 4/West Newport Pike approaching Silview Avenue. At the same time, a 43-year-old woman from Wilmington was driving a gray 2009 Audi A4 in the same direction.

Police said the collision occurred when the woman made a right turn into a private parking lot around 2:21 p.m. The bike hit the car and the impact threw the 22-year-old off of the bike. He was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. The driver of the Audi was not injured.
