Santa Ana Pedestrian Accident

This has already been one of the bloodiest summers in Santa Ana with regard to pedestrian versus car accidents.  A week after a 6-year-old boy on a skateboard was killed by a car in the parking lot of the Villa Del Sol apartment complex another 6-year-old boy was injured by a minivan on Sunday night, at around 9:40 p.m., in the 1800 block of South Evergreen Street, in Santa Ana, according to the O.C. Register.

The victim in this latest accident allegedly ran between two parked cars into the street when he was hit by the minivan.  He suffered facial injuries and was taken to a local hospital but he did not suffer any major injuries, according to the SAPD.  

The driver stayed at the accident scene to talk to the police.  He was not intoxicated and was not cited.  The SAPD referred to this incident as an accident.

This incident happened a half block south of Madison Park.
