March 3, 2016 (Lakeside) — A child who climbed into a vehicle accidentally shifted it into neutral, the Medical Examiner’s report reveals. Kiera Larsen, 10, of Lakeside was playing nearby and saw the vehicle rolling down a driveway on Highway 8 business in El Cajon.
She ran behind the vehicle and pushed another child out of the way, but was run over. Paramedics performed CPR and transported her to Sharp Grossmont Hospital, where she was pronounced dead in the emergency room of a head injury.
Senator Joel Anderson asked that the State Senate be adjourned in Kiera’s memory, praising her as a “beautiful and heroic girl.”
