A 6-year-old boy is expected to be OK after he was hit by a car while crossing a street in Apopka Thursday, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The crash happened around 3:20 p.m. near the intersection of Roger Williams Drive and Rolling Green Drive.
Troopers said a 2013 Ford Fusion was heading north of Roger Williams Drive when the 6-year-old ran into the street, directly into the path of the Fusion. Investigators said the boy was not in a marked crosswalk.
The boy was taken to Arnold Palmer Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, troopers said.
The driver, a 26-year-old woman from Apopka, stayed on the scene.
