The boys, who have not been identified, were trying to cross NE 4th Street in the 3700 block just before 5 p.m. when they were hit. They were not in a crosswalk and police say traffic on the road was very heavy. One of the teens was seriously injured and was rushed to Harborview Medical Center to be treated for head and body injuries. The second boy was taken to Overlake Hospital to be treated for his injuries. Police say the driver wasn't impaired and wasn't speeding when he hit the teens. 5 ways to help the survivor of a pedestrian accident After someone is seriously injured in a pedestrian accident, their life is put on hold as they deal with the aftermath – pain from injuries, possible hospitalization, surgery, or rehabilitation, endless doctor visits – and growing medical bills.
