MILWAUKEE (AP) -- An 11-year-old boy has died after he was struck by a truck on a Milwaukee street.

The Milwaukee County medical examiner's office was called on a report of a child killed in a vehicle accident on Milwaukee's north side.

Witnesses say the boy tried running across the street to meet a family member around 4 p.m. Wednesday, but was hit by a truck.

The driver is cooperating with police and has not been cited.
