Grand Island, NY (July 04, 2025) – A two-vehicle crash on I-190 late Thursday night left multiple individuals injured, including serious injuries to several passengers.
At around 11:46 p.m., a 2007 Toyota Camry, driven by 19-year-old Tamim A. Akbari, rear-ended a 2025 Lexus SUV that was slowing in traffic in the right lane. Akbari sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene, while passengers in both vehicles, including a child, were treated for various injuries. The injured individuals were taken to a nearby medical facility for further care.
The New York State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit and Bureau of Criminal Investigation are assisting in the ongoing investigation.
We hope for the full recovery of those injured.
Car Accidents in New York
Car crashes are frequent across Upstate New York, especially along Interstate 81, I-88, and rural stretches of Route 6, where fast-moving traffic meets poor weather and limited visibility. Heavy snow, black ice, and commercial truck activity increase the risk of serious collisions year-round. These highway crashes often result in multi-vehicle pileups, rollovers, and rear-end impacts, leading to injuries such as head trauma, broken bones, and spinal damage. Emergency response can be delayed in remote areas, which worsens outcomes for injured victims. When several vehicles, commercial carriers, or unclear road conditions are involved, working with an experienced New York car accident lawyer can make a critical difference in securing the recovery you need.
