15-Year-Old Boy Killed in Car Crash

A 15-year-old boy was killed in a car accident in Cupertino, California Friday.

The 15-year-old boy, who lived in Sunnyvale, was climbing on a tow bar of a truck that connected two trailers while it was stopped at a red light on Wolfe Road near I-280. When the truck began to accelerate, the boy was run over by the rear wheels and suffered fatal injuries.

The driver of the truck, possibly unaware that the accident occurred, drove away from the scene.

The California Highway Patrol is looking for the driver and investigating the accident.
