Bronx man dies after falling off e-scooter hitting head on ground

A Bronx man died after losing control of his electric scooter last month and slamming his head on the ground, cops said.

Marvin Campbell, 45, was riding a Cycleboard Rover Scooter on Bronx Park East near Waring Avenue in Allerton on the evening of Oct. 27 when he fell off, according to police.

The Wakefield man was taken to Jacobi Hospital where he died last week, according to the NYPD.

Campbell was not wearing a helmet, cops said.

Helmets are not required for e-scooter riders 18 and older, but are “highly recommended,” according to the city’s Department of Transportation.
