LAYTON — A 2-year-old girl died at Primary Children's Hospital Friday after police say the child was hit by a reversing pickup truck at a car wash in Layton.

Layton Police Lt. Clint Bobrowski said the crash happened about 10 a.m. at a Shell car wash located in the area of Church Street and 1500 East.

Bobrowski said an 18-year-old man was behind the wheel of the truck. The truck was parked at the car wash's vacuums, and there was a minivan next to the truck with children. Two kids were playing outside of the van, Bobrowski said, and the 18-year-old backed up and hit one of them.

"As a truck pulled out, (it) unfortunately struck the young girl, and she sustained critical injuries from that," Layton Police Lt. Riley Richins said.
