MILWAUKEE — An 8-year-old Milwaukee boy is facing a long road to recovery after being struck by a hit-and-run driver while walking home from school Tuesday afternoon.
King 'KJ' Hogan was crossing at the intersection of 35th and Scott streets around 4:00 p.m. when his siblings said a woman driving a grey Jeep SUV ran a red light and hit him in the crosswalk.
"The world needs to see what happened to my son and what he's going through," said his mom, Milly Boyd.
His two older siblings witnessed the crash and watched as the driver briefly stopped, looked in her rear-view mirror, and then drove away.
"He said, mom, she stopped, looked at her rear view and kept going," said Boyd.
The impact left King with devastating injuries. His jawline and nose are broken, the bones in his face are shatt
