A 12-year-old boy was airlifted to Lee Memorial after being hit by a car while riding a bike Thursday evening.
Officials we spoke to say the child was heading west on the shoulder of 8th Street SW.
They say the boy veered into the road and hit the passenger side of a car, which threw him up into the air before he hit the windshield of the car.
The boy is said to have severe head trauma. Troopers say he was not wearing a helmet.
Officials on scene also said they do not expect to charge the driver in this crash.
