This photo is gross. .do we really need to see a dead body laying on the street. .great work hurting the descendants family for years to come, Boyd! (And don’t bother to post 5 the “It’s perfectly legal crap here” we know that Boyd. Uou’re still a piece of s*** for doing it claiming you are a “photojournalist when you are a joke).
PJ – you are just as bad a Boyd.
yes but if it was a white photographer you would not say a word
If you took the time to read the story, you will see that the individual died at the hospital. There was no dead body on the street.
You are an asshole. There was no dead body on the sidewalk. The man was taken to the hospital where he died.
Better check your reading glasses. Story clearly says man died at hospital. No dead body left behind to photograph.
Stupid bigot can’t read. Guy died in Paterson at hospital. No corpse at scene. Stop bashing Boyd.
It is legal and there is NO DEAD BODY in the photo. What is your friggin’ issue?
The victim, whose identity has not yet been released, was pronounced dead at St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center in Paterson after being transported by the Midland Park Volunteer Ambulance Corps.
So I suspect that is not a body you see, but rather a tarp.
No dead body on the street jerk off. The man died at the hospital.
That is not a body. The person was taken to the hospital and died later. So you are not so smart, are you.
People like you who love to hate Boyd are so obvious. We know your bias.
It’s the person’s laundry, not a dead body you fool.
Yes, but was it dirty laundry? Because if so that’s disgusting.
Amazing how some people are. Take it easy. It’s news. Is that area a problem with crossing, is it dark, do we need to put lights there.
Wasn’t there an incident a little while back regarding a young adult getting hit by a vehicle while he was on a bicycle? I’m not sure maybe somebody can clarify.
My family and I were friends of the deceased. The police did not provide his name because they have to first notify the next of kin. Unfortunately all his relatives have passed. All he had were his friends. We know he died because the police called one of his contacts/friends on his cell phone. That person then notified all his other friends of the unfortunate accident by a reckless driver. The reckless driver left the seen of the accident. Did they leave because they were drunk or stoned? Witnesses said the reckless driver drove a dark colored SUV, and has front end damage.
If anyone knows anything about this unfortunate accident, please contact the Midland Park, NJ. police department. Once, the police’s investigation is completed, then this poor unfortunate sole may be laid to rest.
