NEW YORK CITY — A driver died Wednesday morning when he slammed his silver BMW into two parked cars along Utica Avenue in East Flatbush, cops said.

The man, whose identity was not released, was speeding north on Utica Avenue when he struck two cars near Clarendon Road about 4 a.m., according to the NYPD.

The motorist, who police said was 23, was rushed to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to an NYPD spokesman.

An FDNY spokeswoman confirmed the crash, but said the driver was in his 40s.

There were no other injuries reported, officials said.
