                              When worlds collide...

Abdülhekim Eşiyok of Ağrı went to New York in order to better support
his family in Ağrı and to start a new life for himself.  However, on the 
night of 4 June, as Eşiyok was sitting on his motorcycle on the sidewalk
at 3rd Avenue and 21st Street, a drunken Uber driver named Mahbun Ali
(26) plowed into the crowd there, killing Eşiyok and injuring three other
persons.  Mahbun Ali was arrested by New York police.

Eşiyok's family was unable to get visas to come to New York to retrieve
his body so his friends have started a GoFundMe campaign to raise 
money for sending Eşiyok's body to Ağrı for burial.   Eşiyok had come
to New York just a few months ago.
