What Happened on Stelzer Road
Columbus police were sent to Stelzer Road and Towne Center Boulevard at about 6:50 a.m. after a call about a pedestrian being hit. A Columbus Division of Fire battalion chief said the juvenile went to Nationwide Children's Hospital. The dispatcher said the juvenile was first taken in critical condition and is now described as stable. The vehicle stayed at the scene.
Where the Columbus Police Response Stands
Police closed Stelzer Road in both directions at Towne Center Boulevard. No charges have been announced, and officials have not released the juvenile's name or the driver's name.
Vehicles from a serious crash are often towed to a secure lot and held for inspection. That is a standard step, and the vehicles can be held for weeks.
