Glenn A. Herman Manhattan Tractor Trailer Attorney Reports –
Glenn A. Herman Attorney for Manhattan Tractors and Trailers Reports — As I sat at my desk earlier today, looking out at the blue sky and the sun shining brightly on the New York Times building, I noticed the blinking lights of the police cars. Then more flashing lights. Then more police cars. Then the traffic stopped. Then a tractor-trailer that didn’t move on 8th Avenue and 44th Street, and a white police umbrella that hid something from the peeping crowd. Police yellow tape is deployed for several surrounding blocks. The internet quickly let me know what I feared. The life of a man in his 40s was cut short while crossing 8th Avenue when he was hit by an oncoming truck. I could see for myself that the truck was parked in the middle of the intersection, but that’s all I knew. According to news reports, the truck was moving fast and the man was under the middle of the truck.
While I read about horrifying events like this far too often, I rarely get a bird’s-eye view of the aftermath.
Even more disturbing is that even before this tragedy happened, a 14-year-old boy in Queens was hit by a pickup truck at 7:45 a.m. and an hour later an 81-year-old woman was hit by a New York garbage truck. Both were injured and taken to nearby hospitals.
A tough day for pedestrians in New York. Our hearts go out to the family of the unidentified man who was killed and the others injured today.
