A pedestrian died Tuesday morning in Bolshevill after a street sweeper hit them around 1140 AM on Diverville Street near. Samuel the Champlain Street. Long-yield police confirmed the tragic crash and launched an investigation right away. The sweeper was run by a contractor hired by the city, adding to the shock of how it went down in broad daylight. Officers are feeling the squeeze with major traffic jams and folks nearby had to steer clear while cops set up a secure zone to dig into what happened. Roads on Diverville stage shut between Samuel the Champlain and Quest Nell Streets to keep things safe during the probe.
