ANTIOCH (KRON) — An Antioch neighborhood is upset that the city removed speed bumps that the residents installed to keep their neighborhood safe.
The residents banded together and installed the speed bumps after Tim Hudson was killed three weeks ago while trying to stop a sideshow in front of his house.
Hudson’s mom, Linda, said that she had been after the city to install speed bumps even before her son was killed. When her son was killed by a driver that a speed bump could have stopped, a neighbor installed speed bumps.
Just four days later, while the family was at the cemetery, the city came out and removed the speed bumps.
Hudson was upset as she said what the city did leave. “They left a paper here with the city code number, and what you can and can’t do and I wadded it up and gave it to Jodi Hernandez, and said to to wipe their ass with it, because they will be put back in if I have to do it myself,” said the grieving mother.
