2-year-old Amara Reason dies 2 days after a vehicle in Arima struck her.

The child died at the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex during the early hours of yesterday morning.

Last Saturday a vehicle on La Retreat Road, Arima, hit little Amara.

She was among a group of people standing on the pavement.

But she was able to step onto the roadway, in the path of a moving vehicle.

The child was taken to hospital where it was determined she was hemorrhaging in the brain and she suffered a broken collarbone, two fractures of the vertebral column and lacerations to the liver.

An autopsy is to be performed today.
