Child hit and killed by school bus in Rockland County, police say
- On Wednesday, a 7-year-old girl named Blima Weber died after being struck by a Yeshiva school bus at the intersection of Blauvelt Road and Manor Drive in Monsey, New York.
- This tragedy follows an 8-year-old Charlotte Herzberg's death last month in a separate traffic incident, renewing pedestrian safety concerns in the densely populated Rockland County neighborhood.
- Ramapo Police Department officers, Rockland Hatzalah paramedics, and members of Chaverim rushed to the scene shortly after 9 a.m.; despite extensive lifesaving efforts, the child was pronounced dead on site.
- The Ramapo Police crash investigation unit is examining the collision's circumstances, with authorities reporting the 28-year-old bus driver is cooperating and no criminality is suspected.
- Ramapo Police distributed 98 safety flyers last week encouraging residents to use designated crosswalks, part of ongoing efforts that included over 16,000 traffic citations issued last year.
