Milwaukie toddler hit by mom’s car backing out of driveway
A toddler was injured after being hit by an SUV backing out of a Milwaukie driveway Tuesday.
Clackamas County detective Jim Strovink said 18-month-old Brock Aschenbrener was hit while his mother, 33-year-old Charmin Aschenbrener, of Portland, was visiting the home and trying to park.
Investigators did not think the boy was run over, and Strovink said the boy was conscious and breathing at the scene.
He was brought to Oregon Health Sciences University Hospital by ambulance and listed in critical condition on Tuesday afternoon.
Studies show that a high proportion of toddler injuries occur in their driveways when vehicles back up.
