Twelve-year-old Noah Wion, who attended Wattsburg Area School District, died Friday morning of injuries he suffered in a crash in Greenfield Township.
It was about 3:15 p.m. Thursday when the boy was struck by a vehicle as he got off of his school bus.
This child lost his life because he was dropped off on the opposite side of the road from where he lived, leaving opportunity for drivers to pass the bus and hit the child. This should not be allowed.
Wattsburg Area School District is assisting Pennsylvania State Police with the investigation, along with transportation provider Durham School Services.
Everyone should sign this and it should absolutely be a law shouldn't have taken such a tragedy to come up with an idea like this especially on busy roads 💔 Chelsea Grygier
This child lost his life due to dropping children off on opposite side of road from where they live leaving opportunity for drivers to pass bus or road conditions bad that drivers can't stop.
We also need stricter punishment for those who disobey traffic laws in school zones and with bus stops too.
This is so No child crosses road getting on or off school bus
