Mama mourns 9-year-old son who killed the Dallas Street Crossing Dallas-NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

Deyaneira Ledesma said that she was with her twins and another student at Felix Botello Elementary when she crossed by a truck that crossed the Marsalis Avenue.

The mother of a 9-year-old boy who tried to cross the Marsalis Avenue to school on Thursday said she never saw the truck who met her son, two other children and herself.

Deyaneira Ledesma told NBC-5, she looked in both directions before stepping onto the street, but admitted that she and the three children were not on a zebra crossing.

“I fije hacia los lados y no venia ningun carro,” said Ledesma in Spanish.

According to the Dallas police, a silver pick-up truck hit all four in the 200 Block of the Marsalis Avenue.

Jose Ledesma was killed.

According to her mother, his twin sister suffered a broken leg and a hip.

Dallas Fire-Rescue said that a third patient, an 11-year-old girl, was also taken to the hospital with serious but not life-threatening injuries.

The Dallas police said on Friday that the crash was still part of an ongoing examination, but the incident is currently regarded as a mode of transport without having expected the arrests.

The driver stopped after the accident.

On Friday, employees of the campus were published on the sidewalk along the Marsalis Avenue to ensure that no other student tried to cross the street in a place other than a marked zebra cross with a transmission guard.

Dallas ISD had the early release to mark the last day of the school year.

The parents Cynthia Rocha, who took up her first and third students, told NBC-5, the Botello Elementary School community mourned at the beginning of the summer break.

“We are a very close community. The school, the parents, the students,” said Rocha. “We are all connected, we all know each other.”

While the Dallas police said that the speed did not seem to be a factor for the crash, Rocha said that the proximity of the school was not unusual near the school.

“We have no speed bumps; we have a cross, but we need some change,” said Rocha.

Ledesma said Jose, who had turned nine in April, loved the football star Lionel Messi, danced and made his mother smile.

“Mi niƱo era mi angelito, mi mas Grande Amor, era Mi Todo,” said Ledesma about the boy she called her angel, her greatest love and her everything.
