Father and Daughter Hit By Van While Walking Home


Nachmen Lefkowitz, 39, is in critical condition after being hit by a 2006 Ford Free Star van at 9:27 p.m. on Tuesday while walking to his home in Ramapo with his 16-year-old daughter, Rivky.
Mr. Lefkowitz sustained a broken leg and internal injuries. Hatzolah took the pair to Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, where Mr. Lefkowitz underwent emergency surgery and his daughter was treated for leg pain, according to The Journal News (http://lohud.us/VuNDtB).
Ramapo police said the father and daughter were walking along Saddle River Road, but it is unclear if they were crossing Saddle River Road or walking in the street when they were hit near Miele Road where they live. The incident is being investigated. Thus far, no charges or traffic violations have been filed against the 26-year-old driver of the van.
