Orlando,FL : Infant critically injured in Orlando crash on April, tuesday 25th 2017
An infant was critically injured in a traffic crash in Orlando on Tuesday night while riding in a vehicle without being buckled into a car seat, officials said.
The crash was reported about 9:45 p.m. at West Washington Street and North Orange Blossom Trail, according to online crash logs. It involved two vehicles, Orlando Fire Department spokeswoman Ashley Papagni said.
The baby is about 19 weeks old, Orlando Police Department spokeswoman Wanda Miglio said.
OFD medics took the baby for treatment at Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children as a “trauma alert,” Papagni said. The infant arrived at the hospital with a pulse.
Miglio said the child was in “critical, but stable condition” Tuesday night.
The Fire Department’s Critical Incident Stress Management team was deployed to the responding fire station to help firefighters debrief afterward.
No further information was immediately available Wednesday morning.
