Ocean City firefighters, EMS clinicians and the Ocean City Police Department were on the scene of a serious motor vehicle collision involving a pedestrian and tram near Dorchester Street and the Boardwalk. A portion of the Boardwalk was closed on Aug. 20, 2024 during the investigation.
The child was crossing the tram pad near Dorchester Street around 8:14pm when he was hit by a southbound tram, according to a news release from the town. Local first responders said the boy died on the scene.
The OC Police said "The name of the pedestrian is not being released at this time, pending notification of next of kin" which leads me to believe they were nowhere near.
If the parent(s) were strung out on drugs or doing something nefarious or irresponsible it will never be revealed.
who leaves 2 year old wandering? any 2yr old I know has a parent or grandparents hand
We used to call it “Ocean Sh*tty”
Lived there in 85’ good times. Had an OC cop wanna be as a roommate for about 2 weeks, he thought he was the “coolest” he even had edible underwear in the fridge. HaHaHa!!!
We may (or may not) find that out after the investigation. I have my thoughts about the adults involved, but I'll keep my mouth shut.
I literally kept my 2 year old on a leash when walking in public. They can be gone in a flash without one.
Where are the parents? Why in the in the shysters office looking to to get rich off of their bad parenting, of course!
