Bognor Girl Improves In London Hospital

The condition of a young girl from Bognor, who was hit by a motorcycle late Tuesday afternoon, has been upgraded.

The 7-year-old girl is now reported to be in fair condition in hospital in London. She was airlifted to London late Tuesday after suffering serious injuries in the collision.

An OPP investigation determined that the girl ran out onto Grey Rd. 29 and was hit by a passing motorcycle.

The motorcycle driver, a 45-year-old man from Owen Sound, was treated for minor injuries and released from hospital.

Police say speed was not a factor, and no charges are expected.
