A 6-year-old Cambridge girl has been airlifted to Hamilton hospital with serious but undetermined injuries after being hit by a car Tuesday morning.
The car was leaving a parking lot on Mercer Road in Cambridge at around 9 A.M.
The vehicle hit a van on Mercer Road before accelerating and then hitting the girl who was standing on the sidewalk.
Police say the young girl was dragged a short distance until the car crashed into a house.
Police Spokesperson Olaf Heinzel spoke with 570 News.
“It certainly appears to be a very tragic and very rare type of incident. We’re still determining what exactly was happening with the driver that would cause the driver to take this kind of an action.”
A 33 year old Cambridge woman driving the car was charged with Careless Driving.
