From the June 3, 1861, New York Times.
The war was going on, but daily life continued as well.
The paper reported that on June 1st, 4 and 1/2-year-old George Kedar was struck at 49th St. and 9th Avenue by a beer wagon drive by Nicholas Hamdia. The boy died of his injuries.
Hamdia attempted to escape in the wagon, but was pursued and captured.
I imagine he was arrested.
