Two Putnam Valley residents hurt

A Mahopac man died on Tuesday (Sept. 27) in a vehicle crash in Putnam Valley.

Bryan Tumolo, 23, was pronounced dead at the scene of the collision, which took place just before 9 p.m. on Wood Street near Meadow Crest Drive, according to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department.

The sheriff said that the driver of the second vehicle, an 18-year-old Lake Peekskill man, and a passenger, a 17-year-old girl from Putnam Valley, were airlifted to Westchester Medical Center. A second passenger, a 15-year-old girl from Putnam Valley, was taken by ambulance.

The agency said a preliminary investigation indicated that Tumolo, traveling north, crossed the center line.

GoFundMe campaigns have been created to assist Tumolo’s fiancee, McKayla Gordineer and their daughter, Kaylee, and the two female passengers, identified as Caitlin and a Emily Quinn.
