An 81-year-old man injured in a Nov. 5 head-on collision on Jarret White Road in Moanalua died last night at The Queen's Medical Center.

The medical examiner's office identified the man as Milton Suzukawa of Kane'ohe. It is the 61st traffic fatality of the year on O'ahu.

Police, meanwhile, said speed and alcohol appear to be contributing factors in a 1:20 a.m. crash today in 'Ewa that left a 19-year-old man in critical condition at Queen's hospital.

The man was a passenger in a 1997 Ford pickup truck that crashed into a tree in the center medial of Renton Road near Tenney Road. A 23-year-old man who was driving the truck is listed in guarded condition at Queen's.

In an earlier collision on the H-1 Freeway near the Waipahu Street overpass, a 26-year-old Kapolei man suffered a dislocated wrist and arm injuries when his pickup truck was sideswiped by a sedan yesterday at 4:49 p.m. The car's driver fled the scene of foot. The injured man is in fair condition at Queen's.

Also yesterday, a crash near Crouching Lion Inn shortly before 11 a.m. forced the closure of Kamehameha Highway for four hours. A woman driving a truck that struck a utility pole told police she swerved to avoid a dog.
