Carlsbad 4 Year Old Hit By Vehicle Sustained Personal Injuries
In San Diego County, Carlsbad, a four year old girl was struck by a car and sustained personal injuries when she ran after a ball into the roadway near Carlsbad High School. She was flown by helicopter to Rady's Children Hospital with a broken leg but was conscious and alert and appeared to be doing "OK." The driver of the car, a Chevy Suburban, that struck the little girl was not arrested.
This little girl was extremely lucky to not be injured much more severe after being hit by a huge vehicle. As adults, we must do what we can to watch our children diligently when they are playing on or near the streets!
