19. Baby Girl Hit by Truck After Fall
From Shopping Cart

A 22 month old infant girl was riding in the seat of a grocery cart which her parents were pushing home from the store with groceries. At one point the sidewalk narrowed; somehow the cart tipped on its side onto the roadway. The child's head was struck by the dual rear wheels of a tractor trailer truck. Las Vegas, Nevada |

Over 10,000 children fall from shopping carts each year. Over 5,000 cause severe head injuries. ALWAYS use restraining seat belt and never let children ride in the food basket. |
