Tragic incidents involving children being struck by vehicles occurred recently in New Mexico and Colorado. In New Mexico, a 3-year-old boy was hit and killed by a vehicle while camping with his family, as the driver failed to see him when stopping for dogs that had run onto the road; no charges have been filed as of now. Meanwhile, in Pueblo County, Colorado, a 10-year-old child was fatally struck by a semi-truck while crossing U.S. Highway 50 early Monday morning; authorities confirmed the child was pronounced dead at the scene. The Colorado State Patrol is investigating the incident, which temporarily closed the highway, but speeding or substance use are not suspected factors. The identity of the 10-year-old has not yet been officially released. Both tragedies highlight the dangers children face near roadways.
