Misaskim this morning released the attached photo – it’s what’s left of the helmet a young boy who was struck by a vehicle in Boro Park today.
(Read more about the incident on YWN.)
“Without this helmet, he wouldn’t have made it to the operating room,” says Askan Rabbi Yanky Meyer, Misaskim’s founder.
The child remains in critical condition.
Please be Mispallel for Moshe Yehuda ben Rochel Miriam.

BH he was wearing a helmet!
Wow! Refuah Sh’laima! It is mind boggling to me how many children I see riding bikes without helmets. Parents need to make sure that their children do not go on a bike or scooter without having a helmet properly strapped on.
and how many fathers i see riding with their kids and the fathers are not wearing helmets
I completely agree with Moish and would like to add that the new additions of hoverboards and the like are not exempt from helmet wearing.
Anyone know update on the child ?
