Motor vehicle accidents can be brutal and claim lives. One such horrific tragedy happened in the Bronx when a 7-year old child lost his life after being fatally struck by an MTA bus.
The Details of the Accident:
The deceased hails from Brooklyn and has been identified as Shevon Bethea. This accident happened around 3:30 p.m. at the intersection of East 184th Street and Webster Avenue in Fordham Heights. He was riding his battery power scooter when the accident occurred.
What About the Bus?
The police are now investigating this accident. According to police reports, a 38-year old man was driving the bus south on Webster Avenue when it hit the boy. The bus stopped approximately a block away from the scene. The bus driver remained present at the scene.
A team of paramedics arrived soon after and rushed Shevon to St. Barnabus Hospital. He was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Witnesses Say:
According to the witnesses of this tragedy, Shevon was zooming down the sidewalk. He then came down the hill and entered the street. This is the first reason why the bus driver did not see the boy in time.
The driver also had the green light, as confirmed by the police.
According to witnesses, the sidewalk being tucked behind a building blocked the driver’s line of sight, creating a blind-spot for the driver while he was driving the bus towards Webster Avenue.
Statement by an MTA Official:
An MTA official has released a statement in this matter saying,
“This is a tragic situation and our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of this young boy. We are working closely with police.”

New York City is one of the most congested cities in the world and it records many deaths from motor vehicle accidents every day/year. Another tragedy has once again come to light in metropolitan New York. An 85- year-old woman died in a fatal crash while her 90-year-old husband suffered life-threatening injuries in a motor vehicle accident.
The Details of Accident:
This tragedy actually occurred at a car wash in Brooklyn at about 3:15 pm when a jeep hit the couple at Avenue U and Gerritsen Avenue in the Marine Park neighborhood.
According to sources, both husband and wife were standing outside the car wash. The couple was inspecting their Honda that had just been washed. That’s exactly when a black Jeep came on scene.
It was left in neutral and was being backed by the car wash into a garage when it hit the building. Then the 61-year-old car wash worker drove the jeep forward for some unknown reason and hit the couple. This accident was totally bizarre because the attendant was backing up the Jeep and put his foot on the accelerator to move it forward. The attendant repeated his move three times and went on to smash into a car that was already damaged. Moreover, he pushed several more cars onto the sidewalk.
Details by Witnesses:
The driver was immediately pulled out of the driver’s seat by his fellow workers. The repeated sounds of this collision were heard by a witness at a nearby salon.
Two ladies came running outside; one of them was shouting, “Oh Somebody died, I’m scared!” said Tracy Ye, a witness.
Medical experts quickly arrived at the scene and examined the couple. They pronounced the 85-year-old woman, identified as Joan, dead on the spot whereas her 90-year-old husband was immediately rushed to NYU Langone hospital in Brooklyn because of the life-threatening injuries received.
According to sources, the old man injured in the crash is a retired NYPD (New York Police Department) lieutenant). According to the police, the car attendant remained at the scene and nothing appears to be wrong with the Jeep. It looks like an accident.
