MIAMI -- An angry mob disrupted medical assistance to a 6-year-old boy who was struck by a sport utility vehicle Wednesday night.
According to police, witnesses said Marie Medjine Andre was driving her Chevrolet Blazer on Northwest 2nd Avenue when she hit the child while he was crossing the street. The force was enough to throw him nearly 12 feet from the point of impact, police said.
Before she could get out of her vehicle, a crowd surrounded the SUV and began shouting and pounding on it in anger, authorities said.
When emergency personnel arrived to treat the boy, the same mob surrounded their vehicle, impeding rescue efforts. Police arrived and had to call additional units to disburse the crowd.
The boy was eventually taken to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition.
Andre, 25, has not been charged at this time.
