Orlando ,FL : 7 - Years old Boy minorly injured and escapes from serious injury after hi by Pick up Truck while riding his bicycle in Orange County on Wednesday , March 11th 2015

Troopers said they are looking for the driver of a pickup truck who drove away after hitting a 7-year-old boy riding a bicycle.

Daytrayvion McCaskill was riding his bike north on Rouse Road in Orange County and attempted to cross Eastwood Drive using the crosswalk when he was struck by the pickup truck that made a right turn off Eastwood Drive.

Troopers said the boy just missed being severely injured. They said the truck only knocked him to the ground, causing him to scrape his knee, but the driver of the black pickup truck never stopped.

"I just was frantic," said Daytrayvion's mother, Willishia Kellum. "It was horrible. My breath stopped."

Daytrayvion's bike is pretty banged up, but luckily, he suffered only minor injuries.

"I'm getting hit by a car, so I'm thinking I'm going to be under the car," said Daytrayvion. "(The bike) was on top of my leg. Why would you hit me and run like that?"

Officials said the truck was black and had a sticker on it, but it was unclear whether the driver was a man or woman.
