SAN DIEGO — A child hit by a car Wednesday afternoon in Logan Heights was rushed to an area hospital with injuries.
San Diego police responded to the intersection of Ocean View Boulevard and 29th Street around 1:52 p.m. following reports of a crash.
When first responders arrived at the scene, they found a 10-year-old boy who had sustained severe injuries after being hit by a car while riding his bicycle, according to San Diego police.
10-year-old Angel says he saw Jamarie laying in the street after he was hit.
