BENSALEM, PA – The Bensalem Police Department is investigating a fatal incident involving a 14-year-old pedestrian that occurred last Thursday, July 6, at approximately 10:15 pm. The incident occurred on the 3900 Block of Street Road West, before the Route 1 overpass.

According to reports, two juvenile males were crossing the street when a dark gray 4-door sedan, possibly a Honda, swerved out of the left lane to avoid the first juvenile but may have hit the second juvenile. The second juvenile was subsequently struck by a silver Hyundai Tucson. The driver of the Hyundai stayed at the scene, but the sedan left the area before police arrived.

The Bensalem Police Department encourages the driver of the sedan to come forward. Anyone with information can contact the Bensalem Police Department at 215-633-3687 or the Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS.
