HARLEM: Teenager Killed In Car Accident Involving Stolen SUV On Morningside Avenue

Teenager Killed In Harlem Car Accident Involving Stolen SUV On Morningside Avenue

HARLEM, CALIFORNIA (March 17, 2020) – A teenager has tragically died in a car accident along Morningside Avenue.

New York Police Department officials are saying that the accident took place by the intersection of 116th Street. For reasons that remain under investigation a 15-year-old boy stole an SUV and flipped it over.

The SUV struck a 13-year-old boy leaving him seriously injured. Paramedics were called to the scene in order to help the victim.

Despite life-saving measures he later died due to his injuries. An investigation remains ongoing.

Liability In Harlem Car Accidents

All drivers have a legal responsibility to exercise due care in order to avoid hitting pedestrians in lawfully marked crosswalks. According to New York Vehicle Code 1146, “A driver of a motor vehicle who causes physical injury as defined in article ten of the penal law to a pedestrian or bicyclist while failing to exercise due care in violation of subdivision (a) of this section, shall be guilty of a traffic infraction punishable by a fine of not more than five hundred dollars or by imprisonment for not more than fifteen days or by both such fine and imprisonment.” Any person that is injured in a car accident may have legal recourse through a bodily injury claim.

Investigating A Harlem Car Accident

We at Pulvers, Pulvers & Thompson extend our thoughts and prayers to all of the victims of this accident. Any person that may have seen what happened should reach out to police as they continue their investigation. There needs to be some accountability for what happened.
