Nine-year-old Akeem Suluki was thrown across the road when a car hit him around 3:30 p.m. He had been leaving his after school program at PS 262 in Bedford Stuyvesant, and the crossing guard tried to pull him out of the Dodge Charger's way but couldn't save him. Suluki was taken to Kings County Hospital Center, after suffering a collapse lung, bleeding to the brain, and more (news reports said he was in a full body cast).
Suluki's mother made a heartfelt plea for the driver to turn himself in and asked, "Why did you run a child over, just hit a child in front of a school like that?" Later that night, 16-year-old Shyquan Burns turned himself in at the 81st Precinct (the Daily News says he was in tears) and was charged with driving without a license and leaving the scene of an accident.
Suluki, who loves playing chess and the Nintendo Wii, is reportedly on a ventilator. WNBC reports he had been thrown 40 feet--the orange cones in the image above indicate the spots where he was hit and where he landed.

Another ghetto, murdering cry baby? What would his "boys" think?
This dude snitched on himself! WTF?!?
try him as an adult and cage him for 50 years.
I feel bad that Mr. Sulu's son got in an accident.
Don't let that guy ever behind the wheel of a car again. He should be blacklisted from getting a license from NYS DMV and preferably every other vehicle agency in the country.
snitches get stitches
It's such a tragedy when aspiring rappers get run over. And how high must one be to name their kid "Shyquan"?
Wow
If cycicism is the refuge of the naive then you all are the dumbest around
All of you should have been hit instead of that kid
or
At least dragged out into the street and shot
Scum
all of you
oh
and at least the Driver was a man and confessed to what he did
something that none of you can ever be
if i ever meet any of you I will be sure to vomit all over you
[8] What's your problem? How utterly presumptuous of you. I wouldn't need to turn myself in because 1) I wouldn't speed in a school zone and 2) I wouldn't have left the scene. He turned himself in almost certainly because he was afraid he was going to get caught anyway. If he was really a man, he would have stayed there or at least gone straight to a police station.
Vomit all over yourself.
A friend of mine plowed into two staggering drunks, killing one of them and then fled the scene. he turned himself in the next day and got 65 days in the lockup. This is very very common.
