12-year-old S.F. boy struck, killed by car in Bayview

preview

A 12-year-old San Francisco boy was struck and killed by a car in the Bayview neighborhood Wednesday morning, authorities said.The medical examiner’s office identified the victim as San Francisco resident Jesai Andrews, 12.Officers responding to reports of a crash found Andrews suffering from life-threatening injuries on the 900 block of Ingerson Avenue at 10:11 a.m., said Robert Rueca, a spokesman for San Francisco police. The driver stayed at the scene of the accident.Paramedics responded, but Andrews was pronounced dead at the scene.He was riding a skateboard when the collision occurred, according to a law enforcement official familiar with the investigation.Lindsay Cutler saw Andrews skateboarding from an upstairs window of her home on Ingerson Avenue shortly before the collision occurred — around 10 a.m., she said. The sound of emergency sirens drew her back to the window a few minutes later.“I looked out, and by 10:20 he was in the street, his mother was standing over him screaming and cops and firemen and everyone was coming,” said Cutler, a teacher at Thurgood Marshall Academic High School in San Francisco. The morass that’s prevented public shcools from resuming in-person instruction, Cutler said, was squarely to blame for Andrews’ death.“As a parent and a teacher, I’m sickened that this happened,” she said.“That young man should have been on a playground at recess, not skateboarding at home, probably on his Zoom break to get some fresh air and some sanity. I feel ashamed and embarrassed. Why aren’t schools open? This is shameful.”Updated to include drought zones while tracking water shortage status of your area, plus reservoir levels and a list of restrictions for the Bay Area’s largest water districts.The driver cooperated with investigators, Rueca said. Police did not disclose whether the driver was impaired at the time of the accident.“Our hearts and prayers go out to the family of the deceased youth for this tragic incident,” police said in a statement.Nora Mishanec is a San Francisco Chronicle staff writer.
