I was driving down Baltimore Ave last week and watched a young woman walk right in front of the trolley with headphones on looking at her phone, the driver was able to stop the trolley in time before hitting her and the woman never even looked 🙏🏾
@Hd215 that’s crazy
That's really sad
Wow my condolences 💐
Praying for her not suffering too much, and her family.
