Ten Dead, City Silent: Bronx Streets Run Red While Leaders Stall
Precinct 48: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
Blood on the Asphalt
In Precinct 48, the toll does not stop. Ten dead. Thirteen left with wounds that will not heal. In three and a half years, 1,658 people have been hurt in crashes here. Forty-seven of them were children under 18. The numbers are not just numbers. They are bodies on Southern Boulevard, on East Tremont, on Fordham Road.
A man is shot behind the wheel, his car crashing into a stop sign near the Bronx Zoo. “There were a whole lot of rounds. It was crazy. This doesn’t happen around here during the day time,” said a deli worker. The bullets and the speed do not care who is in the crosswalk.
A child on a bike. An old man crossing the street. A woman waiting for the light. The SUV, the sedan, the truck—they do not stop. SUVs and cars killed at least three people on foot. Trucks and bikes left others bleeding.
The Police and the Power to Act
The police in Precinct 48 have the tools. They can write tickets for speeding. They can crack down on drivers who fail to yield. They can stand at the corners where the blood pools and say, Not here. Not today. But the numbers do not show a change. The carnage continues.
Leadership: Words and Silence
City Hall talks about Vision Zero. Albany passed Sammy’s Law, letting New York City lower speed limits. But the city has not acted. The law sits unused while the bodies pile up.
On the street, the violence is not quiet. “It was like a movie,” the deli worker said, still shaken hours after the shooting. The movie does not end. The credits do not roll. The next crash is always coming.
What You Can Do
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Call the precinct. Tell them the speed is too high. Tell them the tickets are too few. Tell them the dead are not just numbers. Demand action. Demand it now. Take action.
