Several people were at the scene on Sunday but none who had seen the accident take place. Norwood News was informed of some second-hand information regarding the incident from one person who declined to be identified but for legal reasons, we are unable to publish this at this time. We will share any further updates that we can share as soon as they become available.
Another male bystander who lives on Decatur Avenue said the neighborhood was generally quiet. “Things like this don’t happen often here, especially at this intersection because, you know, not only do we have lights now but it’s a school setting.

“This is truly shocking,” the man continued.
