A child riding their bike to school was struck by a car in Kamloops on Tuesday morning, Mounties say. Kamloops RCMP say they were called to the intersection of Holt Street and Tranquille Road just after 8 a.m. with reports of a child cyclist struck while crossing the street. “The child was riding their bike with their parents and other children heading to school,” said Cpl.
