1 man dead, 2 boys hurt in 3 separate Rockland car accidents
RAMAPO — One man was killed, and two boys were injured after being struck by vehicles in three accidents yesterday.
The man was pronounced dead at Good Samaritan Hospital shortly after the 8:30 p.m. accident near the intersection of routes 59 and 45 in Spring Valley. In the afternoon, the boys were taken to Westchester Medical Center after accidents in New Square. Their conditions were not available last night.
Detective Robert Bookstein of the Spring Valley police said the man, who was not identified last night, was struck by a white Ford van as he apparently was crossing Route 59. The Hatzolah Ambulance Corps was the first rescue vehicle on the scene.
Members said the man appeared to be in his 50s and was not responding to resuscitation measures when they arrived. They said the driver of the van and his wife refused medical attention. Rockland Paramedic Services also was at the scene.
Rafael Ortiz, 45, who works at El Bandito Restaurant, said witnesses ran into the restaurant and asked that someone call police. Ortiz said he went outside to see what had happened and he saw the van sitting crosswise in the road pointing toward Nanuet and the victim lying contorted nearby.
"I see when he's down there, the leg got up to his chest, it looked like the leg was broken completely," Ortiz said. "All the time people cross the street, they just go out and don't pay attention and don't know if the car is going across or not. I've seen a few accidents, sometimes two cars, not bad like this one."
The van's driver's side headlight assembly lay broken in the road, near medical waste from the rescue effort.
In the earlier accidents, both youngsters were injured; one was driven to Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla by Hatzolah Ambulance and the other flown there by helicopter.
Ramapo police reported the first accident at 1:12 p.m., when a 2-year-old boy apparently ran onto Roosevelt Avenue and into the path of a 2004 Chevrolet Venture minivan driven by Mozes Dirnfeld, 49, of New Square.
Dirnfeld and his passenger were not injured, according to Ramapo Sgt. Brian Corbett.
Police and Hatzolah Ambulance returned to New Square about 4:40 p.m., this time to North Garfield Avenue near the intersection of Truman Avenue where a 7-year-old boy apparently ran into the side of a Yeshiva Avir Yakov school bus shortly after it had finished dropping off its last passenger.
Sgt. Mark Briggs of the Ramapo police said the child suffered a severe leg injury after he struck the front right bumper of the bus. The driver, Yeshia Deutsch, 30, of New Square, wasn't hurt.
Nearly an hour after the accident, North Garfield remained packed, with residents standing along the sidewalks and skirting yellow police tape. Children clustered near the back of the school bus, which was parked, unattended, near the intersection.
There was no obvious damage to the bus, although a dark patch on the ground near the door appeared to be where the child fell.
Briggs said the child did not appear to have any injuries other than his leg.
"It appears he was playing on the side of the road and he backed into the bus," Briggs said.
All the accidents remained under investigation.
