Trenton 3-year-old Killed In Pedestrian Accident
A 3-year-old female pedestrian was struck and killed on Route 129 when a fire truck crashed into a pickup truck, causing the pickup truck to careen into the crosswalk center median and create the pedestrian accident. The pickup truck then struck the child, dragging her several feet down the southbound lanes of the highway.
According to this article that appeared in the Delaware County Times, the accident happened on January 30 around 7:20 p.m.
Several pedestrians were also injured when the fire truck careened into a light pole that then toppled over and landed on top of them.
The article stated that two adults, the 3-year-old girl, and a male juvenile were standing on the intersection’s median pedestrian crosswalk when the trucks collided and caused the Pennsylvania pedestrian accident.
