Boy’s death while biking to school prompts closer look at so-called '2-mile rule'
City commissioners voted Tuesday to direct municipal, law enforcement and school staff to work together on how to create safer routes to school following the death of 9-year-old Roman Miller.
Miller was killed after being hit by a pickup truck as he and his sister rode their bikes to nearby Brentwood Elementary on Monday morning. The two were in a crosswalk at the intersection of Nodosa Drive and Webber Street, where investigators say the driver stopped to let Miller’s sister pass but claimed to have never seen Miller.
