Boy on Bike is Killed by Bus in Florida
A nine-year-old boy was hit by a bus in Lake Buena Vista, Florida on April 1, 2010 while riding his bicycle on Walt Disney property near the Fort Wilderness resort. He was riding with an 11-year-old girl who was not injured. Both children were wearing helmets.
As the tragic accident is still under investigation, not many details have been released at the time of this writing. There were 28 people on the bus, which was a Disney-operated vehicle; no one on the bus was hurt.
According to an early report from the Florida Highway Patrol, the boy veered off the sidewalk and struck the side of the bus. He was then pulled under the rear right tire of the bus and was pronounced dead at the scene. No charges have been filed.
