Minneapolis Boy Killed While Trick or Treating

A 5-year-old boy who was trick-or-treating on Halloween has died after he was struck by a car while crossing a street.

Officers were called to the crash in north Minneapolis around 9:30 last night.
Police found the boy in critical condition.

A preliminary investigation shows the boy was hit by the car as he crossed Victory Memorial Parkway, then became trapped under the car.

Police say the boy was taken to a hospital, where he later died.

Police say adults were with the boy and alcohol or drugs do not appear to be factors in the accident.
