A baby was killed in a crash that left her mother and another child hospitalized on Saturday night, a spokesperson with the Philadelphia Police Department said.
According the police, the incident happened when a 31-year-old woman pushing a stroller -- with her 22-month-old daughter inside -- and a 13-year-old child were crossing the street at the corner of North Front Street and East Wyoming Avenue in the Feltonville section of North Philadelphia just before 9 p.m. on Saturday.
At that time, police claim, a 2022 blue Dodge Ram 1500 Classic, driven by a 28-year-old man, headed eastbound, attempted to turn northbound onto Front Street as the three individuals crossed the intersection with the green light.
The truck struck all three people in the intersection, police said.
