This just makes me so sick at heart !
Some stupid guy backs over a kid with a pick up and then pulls the little boy out and ** tosses ** him aside gets in the truck and leaves !
Ohhh I hope they find this creep. I am too mad to even say what I think, This happened just several blocks from where I live. I live just off the street where the jerk left the truck !
I think I’ll go be sick now !

Bullshit meter going off!
Oh, suuuure he did. And I bet he didn’t get a look at this ‘friend’. 'Cause he was a friend of a friend and all. :rolleyes:
10 to 1 the owner matches the witnesses descriptions.:
Naw. Lots of witnesses.
Witnesses who saw the accident and the driver’s casual disregard of the child were so horrified they came running, carrying blankets, pillows, towels. Some cried hysterically.
“I don’t see how anybody could leave a baby,” said Lucy Garcia, 30, a mother of five who saw the driver throw the injured child. "
The accident occurred in the parking lot of the Summercrest Apartments, 3950 Hollister.
< snip >
Jose, who was pedaling his bicycle about 20 to 30 feet behind the pickup, “never saw the truck coming,” as the driver backed up at a high rate of speed, said officer Pete Araiza.
He backed over the kid in the parking lot–plenty of people saw it happen. If it was the truck’s owner, he’d have been identified toot sweet.
Nope, the perp is almost certainly long gone.
The owner of the pickup told officers he had loaned it to his brother, who let a friend drive it.
The owner said the friend told him he was involved in an accident and hit a child, said police officer R.E. Miller.
Police went to the friend’s home but couldn’t find him. “It’s possible he’s on his way to Mexico by bus,” Miller said.
