The boy has spent the last two days in the hospital with injuries that are not believed to be life-threatening and his mother said he was improving.

Accidents happen, but it's different when you drive off and don't make sure the kid's OK," Cecily Spallees said. "That's not OK. That ain't right."
Police said they were looked for a red, newer model Dodge or Toyota pickup truck with dark rims. Officials are also reviewing surveillance from the area. They do not have a license plate number.

Anyone with information was asked to call the Arlington Police Department or Tarrant County Crime Stoppers.
