Perhaps she intended to run over her ex-partner. But she made a mistake and hit the five-year-old boy he was with. For this reason, a twenty-four-year-old woman from Turin was arrested on charges of attempted murder and assault.
The incident occurred yesterday evening, shortly before 11pm, in the Cit Turin area of Turin, on Via Pinelli at the corner of Via dell'Industria.
The child was with his father and the man's new partner when he was struck. The impact resulted in abdominal trauma and he underwent tests. He is under observation at the Regina Margherita Children's Hospital. He remained alert throughout and his life is not in danger.
The woman driving the vehicle drove away without stopping after the accident, but was later tracked down and arrested by the Carabinieri.
