A driver who allegedly struck two pedestrians Tuesday night told police the lighting on a crosswalk in the town’s historic center could be better.
Monroe Police are investigating the car-versus-pedestrians accident that occurred not far from Town Hall around 8:05.
The driver, a 66-year-old Monroe man, was traveling northbound on Route 111 from the Moose Hill Road intersection, and police said the driver told officers he looked left has he proceeded on Route 111. Police said the car then struck two pedestrians who were in a crosswalk who he did not see “until it was too late. He also stated the lighting in on the crosswalk is very poor.”
