11-year-old girl hit by car near Orange County school, FHP says<\/p>\n

\"Dacia\"BrandonORANGE COUNTY, Fla. \u2014<\/p>\n

A child was hit by a car and taken to a hospital on Wednesday, Orange County Fire Rescue said. <\/p>\n

It happened near Bridgewater Middle School in Winter Garden. <\/p>\n

Florida Highway Patrol’s traffic map shows the call came in after 3 p.m. <\/p>\n

According to FHP, a 2020 Honda Accord was traveling southbound on Tiny Road, south of Bridgewater Crossing Boulevard, as an 11-year-old Winter Garden girl was walking southbound on the pedestrian sidewalk of northbound Tiny Road, south of Bridgewater Crossing Boulevard. <\/p>\n

The girl tried to travel west across Tiny Road and failed to observe the Honda, troopers said in a statement, adding she was not in a marked crosswalk. As a result, the left side of the Honda collided with the girl, the statement reads. <\/p>\n

The girl was taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries, according to FHP. <\/p>\n

The Honda’s driver, a 53-year-old Winter Garden man, was not injured and remained at the scene, troopers said. <\/p>\n
