Followup: Child reported OK after Thursday night incident

A few people have asked us about a Thursday night crash at 16th/100th in White Center that apparently involved a child on a scooter, reportedly hit by a car. We sent a crew to the scene after hearing about this, but the scene was already clear. While that implied good news – no serious injury – we wanted to make sure, so we followed up today with King County Sheriff’s Office media liaison Sgt. Cindi West. She doesn’t usually get reports on non-major crashes but took the time to dig this up for us and tells WCN the report says the 4-year-old girl “was conscious and did not appear to be injured” – the car was going less than five miles per hour. The information she found did not include anything more about the circumstances, but for those wondering if the little girl is OK, it seems she is. (Just a reminder that we cover breaking news in three communities – White Center, West Seattle, and South Park – and if you see or hear something, please let us know, because we answer and are “on call” 24/7 – 206-293-6302, text or voice.)
