A California driver has been arrested after police say she struck a six-year-old boy riding his bike on the pavement, stopped her vehicle, then accelerated and drove over him again, a sequence that has sparked public outrage and calls for severe charges.
San Diego police allege the incident unfolded in broad daylight as the child rode alongside family members in the Pacific Beach area. Prosecutors are expected to announce formal charges after the case drew intense scrutiny from the victim's family and the wider community.
