Vehicle struck child, North Carolina Christmas parade cancelled

RALEIGH, N.C. (NBC) - Organizers cancelled a Christmas parade in North Carolina after a vehicle struck a child.

Witnesses say a white truck carrying a dance company float lost control and hit someone.

The dance company had hundreds of performers in the parade, with some as young as five-years-old.

All of a sudden, the truck hit a young girl and the latter suffered injuries.

Furthermore, the incident happened at Hillsborough Road at Boylan Avenue.

That intersection closed down indefinitely while police conduct their investigation.
