Toddler "run over by vehicle" outside Ramsey elementary school, in stable condition
RAMSEY, Minn. -- A toddler was airlifted to a hospital Wednesday morning after being "run over by a vehicle" outside an elementary school in the north metro.
Ramsey police say the 3-year-old victim was struck at about 9:15 a.m. near Brookside Elementary School. The girl is in stable condition.
Officials say that a woman was dropping off her kids at school when the toddler opened the back door and fell underneath the car. The woman started to drive the car and ran over the girl before stopping.
Principal Dr. Anissa Cravens said the victim was the sibling of a student.
"Social workers are available at our school today to provide additional support at our school for students who may need time to process emotions," Cravens said in a statement.
The Anoka County Sheriff's Office is assisting in the investigation.
