this sweet five year old boy passed away after being hit while playing in the street. this happened a few blocks away from my home. if you are able to help their family with funeral costs, pls do. Heartbreaking.

That's so sad 😢, wishing lots of love for his family.
i know :(, it’s been bad in the city this year. it’s awful to see so many lives lost due to reckless driving
Yeah, do you know if they were under the influence or if the boy ran out into the street as a car was going by?
he was playing on the sidewalk during a family gathering and ran to the street to get a ball. the problem in stl is that people will go 70-80mph on residential streets, with huge lifted trucks and low visibility. kids shouldn’t be afraid to play outside due to speeding cars it’s awful
70-80!?!? That's completely unacceptable. And yeah it seems that's how it always goes, the kid runs out for a toy, so sad.
This is one of my worst nightmares :( so sad
it’s awful :( i can’t imagine how the parents are feeling rn.
Car fatalities in North America are terrible and avoidable. Too many F150s and Semis all over the place taking up space and phone addicted drivers not looking at the windshield.
