Police investigate the scene where the 7-year-old was killed in the freak accident.

 

A seven-year old boy died Monday when he was run down on private, residential property by a three-year old driving a golf cart.

The incident, which took place on Orange River Blvd in Buckingham, is under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol.

As of July 1 persons under 18 may not drive a golf cart unless they are at least 15 and have a learners permit or are 16 and have a drivers license.  A person at least 18 may drive a golf cart without any sort of license, but must have government issued identification. 

A neighbor said that children are often seen on the property and seem to regard the golf carts as toys.
