An 11-year-old student of Saweni Lautoka is now admitted at the Lautoka Hospital with serious injuries after he was hit by a private vehicle driven by a 53-year-old businessman at Saweni along the Queens road last night.
Police Spokesperson Josaia Weicavu said the victim was walking along the road and suddenly ran across when he was allegedly chased by some dogs.
Weicavu said dog owners are warned to keep their dogs inside their compound and not allow them to wander around in public to avoid such incident from happening again.
