Authorities say a man riding an electric scooter died following a crash in Cypress Hills, just blocks away from his home.

Authorities say Quishpe collided with a concrete barrier and was thrown to the pavement, causing severe head trauma.

EMS rushed him to One Brooklyn Health-Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, where he died.
