TAMPA, Fla. — The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office (HCSO) is investigating a deadly vehicle versus pedestrian crash in Tampa.
HCSO said a 3-year-old boy was hit and killed by a vehicle on Thursday evening while riding a bicycle and playing with his siblings. The child's mother was reportedly not far behind.
Deputies responded to reports of a toddler that was hit by a car near the 7500 block of Pitch Pine Circle in Tampa just before 7 p.m.
The driver, a male, was in a Toyota Rav 4 driving through a condo complex and stayed at the scene. He is not facing any criminal charges.
No further information was immediately available and the investigation is still ongoing.
"We don't come home until they do."
Thousands of people are trapped in a growing war zone as conflict escalates in the Middle East. Grey Bull Rescue, a Tampa-based nonprofit, has launched an operation to help evacuate Americans who are unable to leave on their own.
