Novi Incident: Young Boy Hit by Car While Crossing Road
This afternoon in Novi, tragedy struck when an 11-year-old boy was hit by a car while trying to cross the street. The incident occurred on Wixom Road, located south of Grand River, close to Catholic Central High School.
According to reports, the young boy and a 14-year-old friend ignored a “Do Not Walk” signal and stepped onto the road. Unfortunately, a vehicle struck the younger boy. The driver of the car stopped immediately and has been cooperating with investigators as they look into the situation.
