Police identify child run over by relative

SPRINGFIELD (AP) – Springfield police have identified a 1-year-old boy who died after being run over by a vehicle during the weekend.

Police say Michael R. Hudson died Sunday when he was run over in the backyard of the home of his aunt, 36-year-old Nancy Williams.

Police say in a news release that Williams was working on a vehicle and got into a different vehicle to get new parts. When she moved that vehicle, she ran over the child, who was playing nearby.

Police say no arrests have been made, though the investigation is continuing.
