A 5-year-old girl died after being hit by a car in Loudon, authorities said on Monday.
Loudon Police Chief Dana Flanders said the police and fire departments responded to a report of “pediatric trauma” around 4 p.m. on Friday. Officers found the child, Cora Frye, underneath a car and got her to Concord Hospital, Flanders said.
Cora was later transferred to Boston Children’s Hospital, where she died.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to support Cora’s family. In photos, Cora appears beaming from ear to ear, arms open wide with one foot resting on a soccer ball outside, and wearing a bedazzled tiara on her fifth birthday.
“She was so free-spirited, happy, smart, loving and had a smile and a laugh that could light up the room,” her dad, Tim Frye, said in a message on the GoFundMe page. “This is a nightmare we don’t wish for any parent.”
