10 year old hit by car, seriously injured, taken to hospital.
10-year-old boy seriously injured when struck by a vehicle, police say.
A 10-year-old Hillsdale boy was seriously injured when he was hit by a vehicle while walking on S. Jackson Road in Liberty Township on Friday evening. Police believe the boy stepped into the roadway and was struck by a 2000 Dodge SUV. The SUV was heading north on S. Jackson Road about 5:40 p.m. Friday, Dec. 13, when the driver approached two pedestrians — including the boy — walking on the side of the road, according to a Jackson County Sheriff's Office press release. It appears the vehicle slowed down and moved over as the driver attempted to pass the pedestrians, the release states, before the boy may have stepped into the road. The boy, whose name was not released, was taken to Toledo Hospital by Medflight, the release states. The 35-year-old Jackson woman driving the SUV and her passenger were not injured.
