September 9, 2013 (Sacramento): Â鶹¹ú²úAV Superintendent Jonathan Raymond and Sacramento City Councilman Kevin McCarty will announce a plan for improving the safety of a Fruitridge Road crosswalk at a press conference on Wednesday, September 11.
The crosswalk, at 58th Street and Fruitridge Road, is heavily
used by students at West Campus High School on their way to and
from school. On January 19, 2012, West Campus student Michelle
Murigi, 16, was hit by a car in the crosswalk and died from her
injuries. Subsequent to her death, five of Michelle’s friends and
classmates started a petition to demand a traffic signal at the
intersection of 58th and Fruitridge
