"I just heard a scream from down the block and I immediately heard like three or four ambulances come across the block," Shaquan Jefferson, who lives nearby, told FOX6 News the day of the crash. "It’s sad. It’s devastating to me."

The driver of the vehicle that struck Berry, a 41-year-old man, remained on the scene and was arrested. A 25-year-old man was later arrested for child neglect.

Criminal charges will be referred to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office.
