Two separate accidents involving bochurim occurred within minutes of each other Friday morning in Borough Park, sending both victims to the hospital.

The first incident happened at 15th Avenue and 37th Street, where a bochur was struck by a vehicle. A school bus that was stopped nearby was not involved in the crash. Hatzolah paramedics transported the victim to Maimonides Medical Center with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

A short time later, a second accident occurred several blocks away at Avenue C and East 2nd Street. In that incident, another bochur riding a scooter was struck by a vehicle.

Hatzolah transported the second victim to Maimonides Medical Center in stable condition.
