Josephson said it appeared the boy was attempting to cross the busy street at mid-block, not in a crosswalk.
The boy was bleeding from the head but conscious and appeared otherwise uninjured when taken to University Hospital for a precautionary examination. Later, doctors determined his injuries were minor and he was treated and released, Josephson said.
No citations were immediately issued to the 47-year-old female driver, but investigation continued.
