By BoroPark24 Staff

Three separate pedestrian-involved collisions were reported within approximately one hour Friday morning across Boro Park, raising renewed concerns about traffic safety in the neighborhood.

One of the incidents occurred on 15th Ave between 37th and 38th Streets, where a pedestrian was struck by a vehicle and suffered serious injuries. Multiple Hatzolah units responded, while NYPD officers shut down the area to conduct an investigation. Traffic quickly backed up in the surrounding streets as emergency crews worked at the scene.

 The street remains closed as the NYPD Highway Investigation Unit continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.

The other two pedestrian strikes reported this morning occurred at separate locations in Boro Park. The conditions of those victims were not immediately available.
