This is the second time in the last month someone has lost their life at that intersection.

Just after 5 pm Monday night Schaumburg Police said a 65-year-old Cicero man was driving eastbound on Algonquin Road and had the green light when 12-year-old Angela Guan walked into the road against the crosswalk signal.

According to police three people in the area immediately provided aid, but she was taken to the hospital where she died from her injuries.

"I have daughters myself, and I just, I couldn't imagine, what her parents are going through right now, you know, something as simple as just going to 7-Eleven and go grab a snack and then, you know, never make it back home. It hits. You know if you feel it," Owner of Bodega Barber Lounge Thomas Beltran said.

Beltran opened his shop less than six months ago and he has already witnessed the scenes of two deadly collisions just steps away from his business.

Meanwhile Community Consolidated School District 15 issued the following statement:

"Our District 15 community is heartbroken by the devastating loss of one of our seventh grade Plum Grove Middle School students, who was tragically struck by a vehicle in Schaumburg, and heartbreakingly, did not survive. Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with the student's family, friends, classmates, teachers, staff and all those impacted by this tragedy."

Schaumburg Police said the man driving the vehicle stayed on scene and is cooperating with police.

There are no indications he was impaired, though toxicology reports are pending.
