A Brooklyn Park man died Sunday night in a single vehicle crash on Interstate 94 in north Minneapolis.

Andre McNeal, 53, was driving north at a high speed when he struck a guardrail near 49th Avenue N., lost control and slammed into a concrete median head-on, the State Patrol said.

McNeal was not wearing a seat belt when the crash happened a few minutes after 8 p.m., the patrol said.

McNeal is listed as the founder and executive director of the Minneapolis-based Doorstep Foundation, a program that connects boys ages 8 to 18 with behavioral and emotional needs with male mentors.
