A kid is in critical condition in Awasi Hospital after a motorbike ran over him Tuesday.
The kid identified as Barrack Hillary Okwar was walking on the side of the road with other kids from Pala primary school where he undertakes his studies when he met the awful accident.
The unidentified perpetrator disappeared right after the incident to escape being caught up. The nearest witness told the crowd at the accident scene that the offender was over speeding when he suddenly bumped into the schoolboy from the back before he escaped.
“I was not able to identify the culprit as he rushed to escape on his damaged motorbike after he realized I was staring at him,” said Scholastica Ongemi the witness.
The kid developed mutilated ears, neck, and face and injured his legs after the incident.
One person in the crowd identified the child and immediately called his brother Morris Ochieng who hasted to the scene to take the brother to Awasi Mission Hospital where he is currently admitted.
The parents are crying to the police to find the person responsible for the action and bring him to books.
Meanwhile, the family is appealing to the willing members of the public and we-wisher to help pay their son's medical bill as its too expensive for them.
