A Florida family is grieving after a 13 year old boy was struck and killed in a hit and run while walking along a busy road.
“He was with adults. He felt safe. They had him closest to the ditch,” Tyler’s great uncle Bruce Branch told WFTS.
But then a driver in a Chevy Silverado drove along the shoulder of the road and struck the group, killing Tyler and Keefer, and kept going, according to Florida Highway Patrol.
