A Valley Stream man was killed in a wrong-way crash on Dec. 27 in Brooklyn, according to published reports.

Oladele Adaramola, 58, died in the crash, New York City police said, and the driver of the other vehicle, a 73-year-old man, suffered minor injuries.

The crash occurred in Brooklyn at the intersection of Rockaway Avenue and Linden Boulevard at about 4:08 a.m.

Adaramola was reportedly driving a 2008 Nissan SUV the wrong way in the westbound lane of Linden Boulevard when he collided with a commercial Ford van driven by the 73-year-old man. The van’s driver, police said, is in stable condition.

Adaramola was found unconscious and unresponsive, police said, and was later pronounced dead at Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center.
