An elderly man was killed and four others hurt — including a 9-year-old girl — in a three-car smash-up near the Kosciuszko Bridge in Queens Thursday, cops said.

Three vehicles collided around 10:50 a.m. on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, just before the entrance to the span leading to north Brooklyn.

Five people were hurt in the crash — including a 75-year-old man who was rushed to the Elmhurst Hospital Center, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

Four more victims were rushed to the same hospital, including a 9-year-old girl who was listed in stable condition.

Video posted on Citizen shows one vehicle precariously rolled on its side against the highway barrier, alongside a pick-up truck smashed up in the back.

A stopped green taxi can also be seen on the rainy road.

The westbound  Kosciuszko Bridge was closed in the aftermath of the collision.
