Ottawa boy in hospital after being struck by car
Last Updated: Thursday, January 28, 2010 | 9:26 PM ET
Police have reopened Walkley Road between Cedarwood Drive and Heatherington Road, which was closed Thursday afternoon after a 13-year-old boy was struck by a vehicle.
Paramedics treated the boy for a life-threatening head injury and transported him to hospital, where his condition is listed as critical.
Police are still investigating the cause of the accident, which was one of dozens of collisions that happened across the city during Thursday afternoon’s whiteout conditions.
Police warned commuters to drive safely as nasty winter weather creates whiteout conditions in some areas.
They reminded motorists to give themselves plenty of room to stop when they approach intersections and encouraged them to leave space between vehicles.
According to Environment Canada, flurries and blowing snow were expected to continue into the evening, but should clear by morning.
