The child was hit by another vehicle that took off.

Police believe the driver didn't stop because they didn't know they had run over anything.

The car the child fell out of was driven by the child's  mother. Police say she stayed at the scene. The baby died at the hospital.

It's still unclear how the child fell out of the car. There were three other children in the car at the time. Only two were in a car seat.

Police are still investigating. Charges are possible.​
