RAYMOND (AP) — A 6- month-old boy was seriously hurt but survived after he was ejected from his mother’s car during a crash and tossed 25 feet into the snow.
The Cumberland County Sheriff ’s Office says the boy’s mother, 19-year-old Chynna Blaney, drove through a stop sign in Raymond just before 5 p.m. Thursday and was struck by a pickup truck.
The boy was thrown from his safety seat in the back of the car and hurled into the snow.
The driver of the truck, 35- year-old Angie Horler of New Gloucester, told police she saw something flying from the other vehicle, went to investigate, and found the boy.
