Two children were hit by a car that had been speeding in Lynn, Massachusetts, on Monday morning, police said.
The children, a 10-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, were rushed to a hospital but are expected to survive, Lynn police said. They were hit at about 8:17 a.m. on Holyoke Street near Farrell Road.
Jeannette Mourdant, a neighbor, said she rushed over to help when she saw the children laying in the street, crying hysterically.
"I just did what I could. Took her glasses off, brushed the dirt out of her hair…telling hey everything’s OK. Mom’s right here. All these neighbors are here," she said.
