The New York Times reports that 27-year-old Sam Hindy of Eighth Street in Park Slope was killed after taking a wrong turn on the Manhattan Bridge and flippng over a retaining wall, which caused him to fall 15 feet to the lower level, where he was hit by a car.
A computer engineer with Double Click in Manhattan, Hindy suffered massive head trauma. His father is a founder of Brooklyn Brewery.
Just a shame. Brooklyn’s sorry for your loss.
I’m so saddened to read this. I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with his father, Steve Hindy, at the Roots of Modern Brooklyn discussion at Brooklyn College last spring. My heartfelt condolences to Steve and his family.
