According to the New York Police Department via People, Beadle was traveling eastbound at a high speed in his 2023 BMW sedan when he lost control of the vehicle.
The car veered right, eventually crashing off the road shoulder and into a metal pole.
The impact caused the vehicle to ricochet across the eastbound lanes, and Beadle, who was ejected from the car during the crash, suffered fatal injuries.
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrived shortly after and transported him to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The NYPD’s Collision Investigation Squad is currently examining the circumstances of the crash to determine more specifics about the events that led to his death.
