A Queens boy was struck and killed by an SUV tonight after running into the middle of a busy Ridgewood intersection, police said.
The 7-year-old was standing on the sidewalk near Myrtle Avenue and Madison Street with his father when the boy darted into traffic at around 6:50 p.m., cops and witnesses said.
“I saw the child lying in the street -- right on the double yellow line,” said pharmacy worker Darlyn Deleon, 22. “The father was kneeling next to the child and crying. The child looked bad.”
The boy was struck by a 2002 Toyota Highlander traveling east on Myrtle Avenue, cops said. He was taken to Wyckoff Hospital where he was pronounced dead, authorities said.
The driver remained at the scene and cops said they do not suspect any criminality at this time.
