MCKEESPORT — County homicide detectives are investigating after a 15-year-old high school student was fatally struck by a school bus while crossing a busy street outside of a crosswalk.

Parents say they’ve worked to no avail to get a crossing guard near where Deonte Cobbs was struck Thursday afternoon near McKeesport Area High School and Founders Hall Middle School.

Both are on the school district campus in McKeesport.

A 14-year-old girl was killed by a dump truck in March 2014 while crossing the street near the same intersection.

McKeesport police didn’t immediately return a call today, and haven’t identified the school bus driver nor said whether a citation or charges may be filed.

Allegheny County detectives were called in because of the boy’s death.
