Investigators today are in Lakewood continuing the investigation that left a Maryland Woman with severe injuries after she was run over by a bus on Saturday.
As first reported by TLS, the 68-year-old woman was run over by an NJ Transit bus at the intersection of Route 9 and 6th Street, and suffered severe and permanent injuries to her legs.
Ocean County Prosecutor’s Spokesman Al Della Fave tells TLS they are still trying to determine where the woman was walking when she was struck by the bus.
The cooperative investigation is being conducted by Lakewood’s Traffic Safety division, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office and State Police.
Lakewood Askonim and the Chevra Kadisha were contacted to ensure proper arrangements are made for the woman, who was in town visiting relatives when the tragic accident occurred.

She was Jewish?
Chevra kadisha?
Chevra Kadisha?
Oh, I think I just understood the reference to Chevra Kadisha as the article states that there was severe and permanent injury to her legs. Rachmana Litzlan.
To #1 – She’s a 68 year old woman, who has family that love her, that was badly hurt by a bus. Prayers to her and her family. That’s all that needed to be said. What does being Jewish have anything to do with it.
tehillim name?
To Lakewood driver and Lakewood mom, sounds from information in the article like a possible loss of limb(s), which would require burial. Just an assumption.
Raintree resident, #1 was just questioning the involvement of Chevra Kadisha, the burial society which ensures people and body parts are buried according to Jewish law. They would not be needed if the person was not Jewish.
To #8 – thanks for the clarification. I took it the wrong way. Thanks again!
I wanna know why tls talks in riddles? If she’s Jewish & lost a limb why not say that straight & avoid all these misunderstandings. Regardless it’s so sad & I find it hard to believe how it can’t be the bus drivers fault all the way. He should be charged with something.
