O'Neal was treated at the scene by first responders, but was pronounced dead at the scene, now the community is rallying around his struggling loved ones.

"I can’t believe I even have to write these words," one family member said. "Please keep my cousin and her babies in your prayers. 

"We’ve known Paul since he was knee high to a bullfrog, riding his bike on all the Hyattsville streets." 

O'Neal's sister Pamela also penned a touching tribute for the father of two.

"The past couple of hours have been hard," she wrote on Facebook. "My heart literally feels broken and I was definitely not prepared for this (one, and) no, I am not ok, but in time I might be." 

Paul passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind his devoted wife and children," organizers of a GoFundMe for the family wrote. "Paul was always willing to lend a helping hand and support those around him."

His sudden departure has left a significant void in the lives of his loved ones."
