Saturday when police said one of the men took a swing at the other.

The fatal strike happened on Clarkson Avenue in East Flatbush after a 30-year-old tow truck driver arrived around 8:45 p.m. to remove a car parked illegally, according to police.

Police said the owner of the car, a 61-year-old man, tried to stop the tow. At one point the driver allegedly started ******** on the side of the truck to stop the tow.

The altercation became physical, with the tow truck driver delivering a punch that knocked the older man to the ground, police said.

Medics transported the 61-year-old man to Brookdale Hospital but his injuries proved fatal. His identity has not been released by authorities.

Police said the tow truck driver was taken into custody. No ********* charges were immediately announced.
