Because the article *clearly* identifies the exact location of this incedent. It happened on Washington Street at the rail crossing right next to Washinton-Jefferson park. Everyone knows where both Washington Street and Washington-Jefferson park are.. who cares if it's technically in the whiteaker neighborhood? Its also technically "near downtown." From the article alone I know the exact spot this happened, right there on Washington and 3rd...the only point the rails intersect the park and street. Super easy to understand.

Me thinks the subject matter of this article, and the tragedy it entails, was lost on you. All while you were nitpicking the formatting and editing details of the newspaper for no apparent reason.
