Hit & Run Kills 4 Year Old
On September 3, 2004 about 11:30 a.m., an adult and a four year old boy, had just
left Dunkin' Donuts and were holding hands and crossing with the light on the Boulevard
heading east when a red Ford Expedition traveling east on Williams, turned left onto the
Boulevard and struck the pedestrians. Witnesses said that the adult was clipped by the
vehicle, but the child was hit by the left bumper before the vehicle sped off. It appeared
that the child traveled about 15 feet. HHFD fire department responded and
transported the child to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. Gloria Amendano, 35,
of Hackensack was stopped shortly thereafter in Little Ferry on Route 46 heading east and
was arrested. The Bergen County Fatal Accident Investigation Unit was reviewing the
incident. Story & scene photos
