A recent Comsewogue High School graduate was seriously injured on Thursday morning when he was hit by a car on Route 25A.
The Suffolk County Police Department said Dan Colasanto was in the roadway around 1 a.m., on a stretch near Westgate Drive in Mount Sinai, when an eastbound 2010 Honda hit him.
The 18-year-old pedestrian, a Port Jefferson Station resident, was treated for serious injuries at John T. Mather Memorial Hospital in Port Jefferson, police said. The driver, a 48-year-old Miller Place woman, was not hurt.
Colasanto graduated from Comsewogue in 2015. During his high school days, he was a star pitcher and third baseman on the baseball team, as well as a strong hitter.
He also played for the Warriors football team.
Detectives from the SCPD’s 6th Squad are investigating the crash and have impounded the Honda for a safety check.
Anyone with information is asked to call the detectives at 631-854-8652.
