11-year-old struck by car sustains minor injuries

The Register-Herald

An 11-year-old boy struck by a car in Beckley Friday afternoon sustained only minor injuries and the driver will not be charged, city police said.

About 12:30 p.m., the boy, believed to be from the Oceana area, was struck by a Honda Accord on North Eisenhower Drive near Beckley Produce, Patrolman B.L. Fuller said. The boy was taken to Beckley Appalachian Regional Hospital for treatment of minor injuries, which included a broken nose.

Witnesses said the boy darted into traffic as he was crossing the street with his father, Fuller said. The female driver of the Honda was driving at a low rate of speed because of heavy traffic.

The driver, who Fuller said did nothing improper, will not be charged.
