There was a kid hit and killed as he walked to his bus stop here yesterday. Not just any kid but a kid that attended classes for gifted children. He died upon arrival at the hospital.
The kid was wearing a WalkMan radio and was probably so engrossed in what he was lsitening to and so distracted another kid that witnessed the incident said he just walked into the path of a Toyota Camray. Car was a total loss and driver was so very dstraught he needed a Medic also.
Driver will not be charged.
Warn your kids about walkman use and the ipods etc when they are waering headphones and also about talking on cellphons and not paying attention.
This could be a fatal mistake for some kids.
