Syracuse, NY -- A 7-year-old child apparently escaped serious injury after being hit by a car Sunday in Syracuse, police said.
The child, whose name was not released, suffered scrapes and complained of pain after the accident about 12:30 p.m. Sunday in the 300 block of Hillside Street, Sgt. Gary Bulinski said. The child was taken to Upstate University Hospital as a precaution, he said.
The driver was not ticketed because the driver did not cause the accident, Bulinski said. The child reportedly ran into the path of the car, he said.
