SPRUCE GROVE – A young girl in Alberta is dead after police say she was hit by a pickup truck while riding a skateboard.
RCMP say they responded to an area of Spruce Grove, west of Edmonton, where the nine-year-old was struck.
They say the girl had been sitting on a skateboard and rolling off a driveway when she was hit.
Charges have not been laid in the death, which came one day after another child was struck and killed by a truck in Alberta.
Calgary police say a two-year-old girl died after she was hit by a pickup truck Monday in the back alley of a home.
They say alcohol and drugs are not believed to have been factors.
