It made a right turn onto Great Neck Road, going south, and was struck on the back left side by a four-door Hyundai Sonata driven by Anthony Spence, 53, of Florida. After the crash, Spence and a passenger fled the scene on foot. Police located the pair after a brief search. Spence and his passenger were uninjured; Fox died at the scene.
