The Titan Motor Group dealership in Queens is facing public backlash and intense scrutiny following the tragic d*ath of William “Billz” McField, a respected journalist and prominent figure in the New York motorcycle community.
Jordan Rosen, a sales manager at Nissan of Queens, has been fired from his position after he was involved in a fatal car crash on April 5 that claimed Billz’s life.
The dealership officially announced Rosen’s termination in a statement released on Wednesday, April 9, just days after the incident.
A Deadly Collision In Rego Park
According to authorities, Rosen was driving a 2024 BMW iX southbound on Woodhaven Boulevard near 60th Drive when he struck Billz’s motorcycle.
Both vehicles erupted in flames. While Rosen survived and was transported to Long Island Jewish Medical Center, Billz was pronounced d*ad at the scene.
