LEWISTON – A 10-year-old boy suffered a severe head injury Monday evening when he was hit by a car while crossing Sabattus Street, according to Lewiston police.
Lt. David St. Pierre said that just before 7 p.m., the boy was crossing Sabattus Street in front of the South of the Border restaurant when a vehicle struck him in the middle of the road.
St. Pierre said the boy suffered a head injury and was taken to Central Maine Medical Center.
His identity was not immediately released.
