ST. PETERSBURG, FL – A man and woman sustained minor wounds, and a 2-year-old boy was ejected from a car, suffering serious wounds after a collision Friday.
ABC Action News said the toddler’s driver, a 40-year-old St. Petersburg woman, had proceeded through a stop sign on 41st Avenue North, which led her to collide with a Chevy Silverado pickup truck.
Florida Highway Patrol confirmed that the toddler was not wearing his seatbelt properly, resulting in the ejection.
Troopers did not specify if the two pickup truck occupants, a 34-year-old man from Riverview (the driver), and his passenger, a 38-year-old woman, were taken to a hospital, nor did they confirm if the car driver was hurt or will be cited or charged for ignoring a stop sign.
New information will be posted should it become available.
