Mehdi Kabbaj, owner of my favorite clothing store 20 Peacocks (20 Clinton St.), was struck by a minivan and died after exiting a cab stuck in traffic on the FDR and attempting to cross the southbound lanes on foot.
 
 
 
 
		How bizarre and sad. Did you know him? 
		 
		
 
		We weren't super close, but I knew him pretty well. I bought a ton of shirts there and he helped me buy my good suit. Really nice guy. Sad. 
		 
		
 
		Awful. That's quite a thing to attemp. sorry, Jim.
