An unidentified Addelita Cancryn Junior High School student was struck as she attempted to cross Veteran's Drive Wednesday afternoon.
A one-paragraph release from Jose A. Garcia Sr., territorial chief of Police, said the student was passing in front of a taxi van that had stopped to let her cross when a vehicle traveling west in the northern lane struck her.
The student was treated at the Roy L. Schneider Hospital and released.
