Authorities in Liberty County are investigating after two teenagers were hit by a pickup truck next to Cleveland High School.
"I feel like our kids’ safety should be our number 1 priority," said Tashima Garrison.Garrison works at Fish Tales Seafood off Highway 321 in Cleveland. She says the two teens had just purchased food at their restaurant Monday evening.
The 14 and 16-year-olds had to be airlifted to a hospital in Houston. According to school officials, the teens were in stable condition Tuesday evening. The roadway where the collision occurred is very busy with cars, tractor-trailers, and buses. Susan Ard, a spokesperson from Cleveland Independent School District, says there’s a separate crosswalk nearby with flashing lights that’s safer. However, where the crash occurred there aren’t flashing lights.
"It’s pretty scary," sad Chief Darrel Broussard from Cleveland Police Department. "Lots of concerns for all the kids that walk in that area. We try to warn our citizens about the awareness for these students walking on the edge of these roads."
