A motorcyclist was killed and five others were hospitalized in an accident on Staten Island, police said Wednesday.

The 25-year-old man was speeding north on Morningstar Road near Dixon Avenue in Mariners Harbor around 7:25 p.m. Tuesday, police said.

As the motorcyclist approached Dixon Avenue, he collided with a 19-year-old woman driving a Hyundai who was attempting to cross the intersection.

The Hyundai driver and her passengers – a 17-year-old girl and three women aged 18, 21 and 23 – were taken to the same hospital in stable condition.

The motorcyclist’s name was not released while police worked to notify his family of his death.

There were no immediate arrests.
