Jamestown Girl Seriously Injured

 

An 11 year-old girl was seriously injured while when she was hit by a pickup as she was crossing the street in Jamestown earlier this week.

Jamestown Police Department's Major Justin Blinsky says the girl was attempting to cross the intersection of 4th Street NE and 4th Avenue NE.

Blinsky says the they are still interviewing witnesses. But says, early reports indicate the the view of the driver of the Dodge pickup may have had an obstructed view due to another vehicle and did not see the child in the crosswalk.

Blinsky says the girl was walking very fast in the crosswalk when she was struck and received serious injuries. She was transported to the Jamestown Regional Medical Center and later airlifted to a Fargo Hospital.

Major Blinsky says the investigation is ongoing.
