About 100 people, friends and family were on hand for the 'ghost bike' ceremony on the Northwest Side.

Frame painted pink, handlebars covered in flowers and wheels stark white, Joshua Anleu’s memorial bicycle will forever sit at the intersection of North Long Avenue and West Waveland Avenue. The 16-year-old from Portage Park was hit by a car and killed at the spot in early October.

The next morning, 52-year-old James Bowan, of Belmont Cragin, was hit and killed by a vehicle in Melrose Park. Much responsibility falls on drivers, Whitehouse said. As she stood in the 4-way stop, residential intersection where Anleu was killed, could only have been going fast enough to kill the boy if she had not stopped at the stop sign. Karen Buendia, mother of Josh Anleu, left, speaks during a vigil in Portage Park on Saturday, Nov. 4, 2023 for 16-year-old Josh Anleu.
