Fatal crash in Milwaukee, WI – 10-24-19

Excerpts from Fox6now.com:

Three children were struck by a vehicle while crossing the street near 22nd Street and Center Street on Thursday evening, October 24, and one of them lost their life. The driver did not stop at the scene.

According to police, the hit-and-run incident occurred around 5:30 p.m. when a driver ran a red light. The crash involved a 10-year-old boy, a 6-year-old girl, and a 4-year-old girl, as well as two vehicles. Authorities are still unsure whether all three children were hit by both cars, but both vehicles fled the area. Tragically, the 6-year-old girl died, while the other two children—her sister and cousin—sustained serious injuries.

The vehicle responsible for the crash was described as a gray 2007–2009 Saturn Aura with front-end damage and tinted windows. Police are urging anyone with information to come forward.

Excerpts from an earlier article at jsonline.com:

For the next two months, the Milwaukee Police Department will be sharing the names, booking photos, and arrest details of individuals convicted of felony reckless driving and/or fleeing from officers. This new initiative, called “Keep MKE’s Streets Safe,” aims to raise public awareness and encourage safer behavior on the roads.

Many of those arrested for these offenses have a history of criminal activity. In fact, 32 people arrested this year have been previously charged with fleeing from police.

The announcement followed a recent crash that injured three people in the 3100 block of North 35th Street, which happened after a police pursuit. Officers were chasing a stolen vehicle linked to an armed robbery and home invasion reported earlier that day. The driver failed to pull over during a traffic stop, leading to a high-speed chase before the car crashed into another vehicle.

Currently, police are allowed to pursue vehicles involved in violent crimes, drug-related activities, or reckless driving. However, such pursuits can sometimes lead to tragic consequences.

On August 1, Lequon McCoy, 19, was killed when a car being chased by police reached speeds of up to 80 mph and ran a red light, striking his Jeep Renegade at North 12th and West Locust streets.

Another deadly incident occurred on April 18, when 18-year-old Larenzo Jones was fatally injured during a police chase. He was in the suspect's vehicle following a shooting that left two girls and a boy wounded.

In June 2018, Officer Charles Irvine Jr., 23, was killed in a rollover crash on the city’s northwest side during a pursuit of a reckless driver. His partner, Officer Matthew Schulze, was also seriously injured.
