Police were called to a home on Grandview Drive for a report of a go-kart accident, and found the man, later identified Boris Serebrenik, 60, of Edgewater, not breathing on the front lawn.

A man died Sunday night after crashing a go-kart into a tree at a birthday party in Holmdel, police said.

Police were called to a home on Grandview Drive for a report of a go-kart accident, and found the man, later identified Boris Serebrenik, 60, of Edgewater, not breathing on the front lawn, according to a release from the Holmdel Police.

Serebrenik suffered a severe head injury. 

Police said two nurses were on the lawn performing CPR on Serebrenik when they arrived and that Monoc Paramedics and Holmdel First Aid Squad also attempted to revive him. Serebrenik was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police said guests were taking turns driving the go-kart on the property and Serebrenik lost control when he drove it in the driveway and crashed into a tree.

The go-kart was small and gas powered and did not have a restraint system and Serebrenik was not wearing a helmet when he crashed, the release states.

Serebrenik worked for the MTA in New York, according to his LinkedIn profile.
