(AP) – A search is underway in Faulkner County for the people
responsible from seriously injuring a juvenile with a car.
Authorities say the unidentified 15-year-old juvenile was struck about 5 p.m.
Friday in Greenbrier. The Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office says the car then
fled the scene.
Officials say the juvenile sustained life-threatening injuries and was
transported to Children’s Hospital in Little Rock by helicopter.
Deputies located the suspect vehicle at a residence and tried to make contact
with the occupants, but officials say two people ran from the back of the
residence into some nearby woods. It is not known whether the suspects are
armed.
Faulkner County deputies and Arkansas State Police were searching for the
suspects Saturday. Details about the victim, including the victim’s condition,
were not immediately available.
