Tragically, a 5-year-old boy passed away last month in Chicago's west suburbs after he was hit by a car in his own driveway. Authorities have confirmed that no charges will be pressed in this devastating incident. The accident occurred on Tuesday, May 27, at around 5:09 p.m. on Royal Fox Drive in St. Charles. Upon arrival, emergency responders found a neighbor administering CPR to the child. Despite being rushed to Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital, the boy did not survive.
