“A few of the neighbors came to help the couple that was in the car and my brother ended up coming later and we were just making sure that everybody was fine," said Xiomara Medrano, a neighbor and witness. "The police officers came, the firefighters came, they took the car out and towed the car, which is good. But it was very traumatizing to watch for sure.”
News 12 was told that it is a very dangerous intersection, where people drive faster than the speed limit.
