STATEMENT FROM BOROUGH PRESIDENT DIAZ RE: Deadly Accident on Bronx River Parkway

  “My prayers, as well as those of my office and all Bronxites, go out to the families of the seven victims of today’s accident on the Bronx River Parkway. Our thoughts are with them as they try to grasp the horrific tragedy that has befallen them today.

  “For the second time in a year, an accident on the Bronx River Parkway has led to a car falling off the highway to the streets below. In the coming weeks my office will reach out to the appropriate agencies to examine the safety issues on the Bronx River Parkway and to discuss potential solutions, such as road condition and barrier/fence height, to this issue. 

 UPDATE APRIL 30th:

Statement from Assemblyman Marcos A. Crespo:

My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with the Gonzalez family for the devastating loss of seven family members. While the circumstances surrounding the incident continue to be investigated, it is important that as a community we come together and lend our moral and financial support to the family.

I will be making a personal contribution of $500 to the Gonzalez family to assist with the cost of the funeral arrangements. I am also publicly urging our Bronx residents and all New Yorkers to consider lending their support to the Gonzalez family as they cope with this tragedy.
