Fund set up to help family of 6-year-old boy run over by school bus in Brooklyn Park
BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. – A 6-year-old boy has a long road to recovery ahead after he was run over by his school bus last week.
Hattie Carvalho, principal of Prodeo's Primary Academy in Columbia Heights, set up a GoFundMe account for the kindergartener, who is named Osman.
Carvalho says Osman "has undergone multiple surgeries to repair severe injuries to his legs, pelvis, and abdomen. He is currently hospitalized in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in stable condition."
Osman was run over on the afternoon of Jan. 25, after he stepped off his bus on the 8700 block of Edinbrook Crossing in Brooklyn Park.
The bus driver left the scene, and later told investigators they didn't know they ran him over. No other students were on the bus at the time. The investigation is still ongoing.
