A 9-year-old Santa Ana boy was in critical condition Monday after being struck by a car while riding a motorized scooter on a street with another boy. The second child, who is 3, was in stable condition, authorities said.
Police did not release either boy’s name.
The accident occurred about 6 p.m. near Pacific and Marion avenues when the pair rode into the path of an oncoming car, said Sgt. Brad Sadler, a spokesman for the Santa Ana Police Department.
No arrests were made.
“It does not appear that alcohol was involved,” Sadler said. “It’s just a very tragic accident.”
