Police say charges are not anticipated in a pair of pedestrian crashes Thursday.

At around 5:00 p.m., an 8-year-old boy was hit by a vehicle in Cranston and then later that night around 10:00 p.m., a 67-year-old woman was struck in Forest Lawn.

The woman has since passed away.

A spokesperson with the police traffic department told 660 NEWS that the boy darted out so quickly into the road, witnesses say the driver would not have had a chance to stop in time.

Police also say he was not in a crosswalk.

In the case with the woman, she was apparently cutting across a crosswalk that had flashing lights, but did not activate them.

Speed, alcohol, or drugs are not believed to be factors in either case.
