FLORIDA, United States – A 12-year-old girl is reportedly nursing critical injuries after she was accidentally struck by her mother following a school drop-off in Florida.

According to a report from ABC News, the girl was picking up pens from under the car when she was hit. The incident reportedly happened at about 7:45 am on Monday when the mom dropped off her daughter for the first day of school.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol and the school district, the girl was getting out of her mom’s SUV on the passenger side when she dropped her markers and pens. When she bent over to pick up her school supplies from under the car, her mom reportedly started driving forward causing the wheels of the vehicle to hit her.

ABC News said the girl was taken to a hospital via helicopter with critical injuries. Her condition on Tuesday was not immediately clear.

The school district has since encouraged families to follow district & school safety protocols and use the designated student pickup and drop-off areas on school campuses.
