PORTAGE (WKZO AM/FM) — Portage Police are waiting for test results before deciding whether to proceed with charges against the driver of a car who struck and killed a 7-year-old Texas Township boy, identified as Nicolaus Moele.
He was apparently using a crosswalk to get back to the 12th Street Elementary School from a field trip as part of a summer camp program offered by Portage Schools, when he was struck just before 3 Tuesday afternoon.
The boy was pronounced dead four hours later at Bronson Methodist.
No information about the driver has been released.
Portage Schools has cancelled the program for the rest of this week, and may shut it down for the summer.
