According to Ramapo police, an 11-year-old boy was struck by a vehicle traveling northbound. The driver remained on the scene.

The child was taken to Westchester Medical Center, his injuries were reportedly not serious.

This is the second time in just over a week that a child has been struck by a car in the area.
