PALMDALE – A teenage boy riding a kick scooter against traffic on Palmdale Boulevard was struck by an SUV and killed Sunday evening, authorities said.

      He was just a kid [removed]. I knew the kids since he was 8 years old. Show some respect accidents happen.

        Hi Cherelle, I just want to offer my condolence’s to you and your family. I lived in the same apartment as Bruce and he was around my sons age just a little older by a year. They used to play together and he was always a nice kid. Not a mean bone in his body, I even helped him fix a bike he had, It saddens me that this happened to him. RIP Bruce. Dont mind these people in this chat they are just miserable and crave attention.
