girl was hit by a vehicle earlier this week on Route 72.
Police responded to a report of a
pedestrian struck Wednesday around 7:10 p.m. on Route 72 in the area of
West Bay Avenue.
According to police, a 2012 black Toyota Tacoma driven by

and eventually flown to Jersey Shore Medical Center with head and lower body injuries. There are
no updates on her condition yet.
No charges have been filed.
