Bayonne Police Lt. Joseph Scerbo said Roque is accused of being the hit-and-run driver involved in the crash that led to the death of 43 year-old Frangakis,
Police said Frangakis “was ejected from his motorcycle and found nearly 45 feet away, which Scerbo said was a ‘significant distance away from the motorcycle,’” according to NJ.com, which reported that “Frangakis was taken to Jersey City Medical Center and pronounced dead at 12:40 AM.”
“The motorcycle sustained ‘heavy damage’ to the rear of the bike, leading police to believe that Roque, who was driving a Toyota minivan, rear-ended Frangakis, Scerbo said. Roque is charged with knowingly leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident resulting in death; hindering an apprehension; and tampering with physical evidence, Scerbo said.
