STOUGHTON — A toddler was killed Friday afternoon when she was struck
by a box truck while crossing the street with her mother in front of
parents and others at an elementary school, the Norfolk district
attorney’s office and a worker who rushed to the scene said.
The mother and her 3-year-old daughter, Shayla Lutz, of Stoughton,
were making their way across the street near the Helen H. Hansen
Elementary School on Central Street at about 2:45 p.m. when the girl was
struck, said District Attorney Michael W. Morrissey’s office.
Shayla was taken to Good Samaritan Medical Center in Brockton, where she was pronounced dead, Morrissey’s office said.
Initial indications are that the woman and little girl were not
crossing in a crosswalk, said David Traub, a spokesman for the district
attorney, although two crosswalks are located approximately 300 feet
from the crash....
