Police in Michigan are investigating the death of a 2-year-old toddler who was hit by a car after leaving her home in Allen Township. The child appeared to have left her bed while her parents were working around the house, and she wandered into the street where she was struck by a 38-year-old man driving a VW Jetta. The child was taken to a hospital but later succumbed to her injuries.
Authorities do not believe that alcohol or drugs were a factor in the crash, and it is unclear if the driver will face any charges. The toddler’s autopsy is scheduled to determine the exact cause of death, and the investigation into the incident is ongoing. Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact the Michigan State Police Jackson Post.
The tragic incident has left the community devastated, and the family of the toddler is grieving the loss of their young child. The circumstances surrounding the child’s death serve as a reminder of the importance of child safety and supervision, even within the confines of one’s home. The investigation into the accident will hopefully provide more insights into what led to the toddler leaving her home and the events that culminated in the fatal crash.
