Suspicion of an accident hit and ran on Yohanan Yosef Street in Jerusalem: A one-and-a-half-year-old toddler was taken to the hospital in critical condition. Police are investigating the circumstances of the case.
The toddler was found by a passerby, and no vehicle was observed in the area. Police are investigating whether it was a "hit and run" accident or the last circumstances in which the toddler was injured, as well as why he was alone on the road.
About a week ago, a report was received about a seven-year-old boy lying on the side of the road on Road 6. The boy, a resident of Jaljulia, with special needs, was located by passers-by. MDA forces who arrived at the scene evacuated the wounded man, who suffered a multi-system injury, to medical treatment at Sheba Tel Hashomer Hospital.
