(PR 261/25)
A 5-year-old boy sustained serious injuries after he was hit by a vehicle in Triq iċ-Ċern earlier today at around fifteen minutes past one in the afternoon (1315 hrs).
From initial investigations it appears that he suffered head injuries when he was hit by the mirror of a Volkswagen Polo mirror which was being driven by a 22-year-old man from Msida.
A medical team assisted the boy and was immediately taken to Mater Dei Hospital by ambulance.
Magistrate Dr Philip Galea Farrugia LL. D. was informed and appointed an inquiry into the case while Police investigations are ongoing.
