A 7-year-old boy who was hit by a car in Clinton Monday afternoon has died, a hospital official said Tuesday.

Investigators said that Kolin Robbins was playing in the leaves at the edge of a yard on Park Avenue around 2:30 p.m. when he stepped into the street and was struck. The driver, who was traveling about 20 mph, got out to help the child immediately, police said.

Robbins was taken to WakeMed in Raleigh, where he later died.
