30-year-old woman dead after being struck by city sanitation truck in Bath Beach

Yeah, well, we now know as well and we've always known that this intersection just right behind me here between Cropsey Avenue and Bay Parkway has been long considered one of the most dangerous in Brooklyn. And now it's taken the life of 30 year old Siobhan Lynch after police say she was hit and killed by a city sanitation truck while she tried to cross the street. Now take a look. This is a video from that scene. As you can see there, the DSNY truck remained here at the scene after that crash. Investigators say a 41 year old man was behind the wheel of that city truck attempting to make a right turn onto Bay Parkway on Wednesday just after 6:30 p.m. when he struck the victim police say Lynch suffered severe injuries and was pronounced dead at the hospital the crash comes weeks after the city broke ground on a new bus lane project along this stretch of Prospect Avenue designed to improve safety and traffic flow but neighbors here say the construction is only worsening the already dangerous conditions. The light is broke every week when it rains from the speed cameras they put up with the construction that messed up all the lighting. This is every other day there's an accident on this corner. And that concern grows as city data shows that there's been four people killed along this intersection between 2021 to 2025. Now as of this year, there's been also 11 injuries this crash that happened say the driver did remain aren't facing any charges
