Right now, there's no word on their conditions. People who live nearby said speeding is an ongoing problem in the neighborhood and safety changes need to be made.

"I would probably say, maybe put up a traffic light or something like that, so this way it gives somebody the opportunity to cross the street with a little bit of safety," resident Perry Demos said.
