Two-year-old hit and killed by car near McGovern Park in Milwaukee

MILWAUKEE – A 2-year-old boy was struck by a car in McGovern Park Sunday night and died, according to the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office.

The MCSO is investigating the circumstances of the incident. Trevon Crockett was there playing basketball when it happened.

“I don’t know if she saw the baby,” Crockett said. “I heard a lot of screaming.”

He also told TMJ4’s Tahleel Mohieldin that he witnessed an argument between several family members and the driver.

“I saw her trying to get into the car, but when she got into the car, she got caught, beaten up and so on,” Crockett recalled. “I mean, she really had nowhere to go.”

It is unclear if any arrests have been made in connection with the fatal accident. Officers on the scene spent several hours flying a drone, marking evidence and interviewing neighbors in the area.

TMJ4 has also reached out to Milwaukee Police and Fire Departments but has not yet received a response.
