A man who was critically injured after crashing his car into a Patchogue business at high speed has died from his injuries.

Scott Letizia, 42, died at NYU Langone Hospital–Suffolk in Patchogue, Suffolk County Police announced Tuesday evening, Dec. 2.

It came just a day after Letizia’s speeding Honda Accord blew through the intersection of North Ocean Avenue and Main Street and slammed into a commercial building around 5:40 a.m. Monday, Dec. 1, Suffolk County Police said.

No other vehicles were involved and nobody else was injured.
