UPDATED: Father of 4-year-old boy critically injured in hit-and-run forgives motorcycle riders but urges them to surrender

"I can't even imagine how people can just hit a little kid and just run away,” Ruhul Chowdhury told CTV News Toronto from outside the Hospital for Sick Children. “They didn't even turn around to look at my son. He could die on the spot. They didn't even care," said Chowdhury.

“I think right now he needs prayers from everyone. Everybody, just pray for him. That’s all Radi needs right now,” said the emotional father. Chowdhury says people make mistakes, both intentionally and unintentionally, and his Muslim faith urges forgiveness and mercy.Police had reported Sunday afternoon that the child had been pronounced dead at hospital, but corrected that several hours later without explaining how the mistake happened.

“The boy unfortunately onto the roadway and was struck,” said Sgt. Brett Moore of Toronto’s traffic services division.The bike is described as an orange or red Road Glide Harley Davidson, a cruiser-type motorcycle. It was travelling northbound on Victoria Park at the time of the incident and continued north afterwards.Moore urged the driver of the motorcycle to turn himself in.

“Radiul Chowdhury, who darted into traffic while with his mother…sustained serious brain damage, along with a broken shoulder, elbow and leg…” Why did his mother take the boy to dart into traffic? Hit-and-run is not cool, but please observe traffic rules.

Sad.

Whether it was an accident or not, the fact that the driver abandoned the scene of a critically-injured child makes them a monster.
