Two-year-old struck and killed by a car near McGovern Park in Milwaukee
MILWAUKEE — A two-year-old was killed after having been struck by a car Sunday evening in McGovern Park, according to the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office.
The MCSO is investigating the circumstances of the incident. Trevon Crockett was there playing basketball when it happend.
“I don’t know if she saw the baby,” Crockett said. “I heard a lot of screams.”
He also told TMJ4’s Tahleel Mohieldin he witnessed a fight breaking out between several family members and the driver.
“I saw her like try to get in the car but by the time she could have got in the car, they caught her, whooped her, all type of stuff,” Crockett recalled. “I mean she really couldn’t go nowhere.”
It’s unclear if any arrests have been made in connection to the deadly crash. Officers on scene spent several hours, flying a drone, marking evidence, and interview neighbors in the area.
TMJ4 also reached out to the Milwaukee Police Department and the Milwaukee Fire Department but has not yet received a response.
