A 49-year-old man who was critically injured when he was struck by a car Sunday night in Freeport has died, Nassau County police said.
Police identified the man as Oscar Saquij-Cruz of Freeport and said he died Thursday.

The collision took place near South Main Street and was reported in a 911 call at 8:08 p.m., police said.
Saquij-Cruz was transported to a local hospital, where he later died, police said.
The 66-year-old driver remained at the scene and has not been charged.
