A 14-year-old boy sustained critical injuries after he was hit by a car at the entrance to a residential development in San Juan Capistrano.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Department said that the unidentified San Juan Hills High School student was hit at Via Pamplona, a residential development entrance that is often used as a turnaround by drivers dropping students off at the school. Residents say the position of the morning sun often reduces visibility for eastbound drivers and that the high congestion in the area makes it dangerous for pedestrians.
The driver of the vehicle that hit the boy remained at the scene; the investigation into the pedestrian accident is ongoing.
