Lubbock ISD confirmed a student was hospitalized after being struck while using a crosswalk Wednesday morning near the Commander William C. McCool Academy.<\/p>\n
Officials say the student was using the crosswalk to walk across Quaker Avenue and 31st Street around 8 a.m. when they were struck by a vehicle. The student was able to stand and walk to the sidewalk where they were quickly assisted by parents, students and staff who witnessed the accident, according to a statement from LISD.<\/p>\n
Lubbock ISD\u00a0Police, EMS, Lubbock Fire Rescue and the Lubbock\u00a0Police\u00a0Department were immediately notified and responded to the scene. The student was taken via ambulance to a local hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n
The student’s condition, and other information about the vehicle and circumstances leading to the crash, were not immediately known. Lubbock ISD\u00a0police\u00a0are leading the investigation into the incident and will be assisted by the Lubbock\u00a0Police\u00a0Department.\u00a0<\/p>\n
