Two Pedestrians Struck On Bayou Boulevard Now In Stable Condition
December 18, 2014
Two pedestrians remain hospitalized in stable condition after they crossed the road in front of an SUV Wednesday night and were struck by the vehicle.
The incident occurred around 7:15 p.m. on Bayou Boulevard near the north entrance to Applebee’s.
Soul Danh, 70, of Pensacola was eastbound on Bayou Boulevard in a Toyota 4Runner and was merging into a turn lane to go north on Ninth Avenue when the pedestrians walked in front of him, said Pensacola Police Officer Dan Bell.
Bell said a 39-year-old woman was talking on her call phone while she and her four children walked across the road. The woman’s five-year-old daughter was also struck by the vehicle and was in critical condition Wednesday night.
Officer Jason Browning said the pedestrians, who were crossing the road from south to north, were not in a crosswalk. Browning said the incident remains under investigation.

I was at the scene , I was actually eating at AppleBees . It was a woman and her 5 year old that got hit but she had 3 other kids with her that didnt get hurt.
>I heard it was three people- 1 adult and 2 children
That was incorrectly reported by another media outlet. It was one adult and one child, per Pensacola Police.
I heard it was three people- 1 adult and 2 children. Either way, I hope all will be okay. Nobody wants to lose a loved one, especially around the Holidays. It is not a good place to cross, but to try crossing with kids in tow, that is just ridiculous.
