William Singleton Dies After Being Hit by a Car

Three hours after he was struck by an automobile, William Singleton died in Harlem Hospital. He was standing on the sidewalk when a collision between a car driven by Frank Mahon and a taxicab resulted in Mahon's car plunging into the sidewalk where William Singleton was standing. Both drivers were unhurt, but the driver of the taxicab was arrested as he had driven his car against the traffic lights, which had caused the first collision.
