A pickup truck hit an 11-year-old boy in Nash County Wednesday as he was crossing the street to board a school bus, according to the Highway Patrol.
Posted — UpdatedJimmy Winstead, a student at Nashville Elementary, was struck in the face by the passenger-side mirror on the truck and was taken to Nash General Hospital to be treated for a broken nose.
The driver of the pickup, Stephen Workey of Nashville, was traveling in the opposite direction of the school bus on Nelms Lane, which is a two-lane road. Troopers said Winstead darted into traffic before the bus came to a complete stop.
