ODESSA -- A child who was critically injured in an accident in Odessa Thursday has passed away.
One year-old Yanna Sanchez was riding in a Nissan Murano that was leaving a parking lot on the 2600 block of Grandview Thursday morning when the back door behind the driver's seat swung open. Sanchez was hanging onto the door and fell onto the pavement. She was run over by the car. Sanchez was taken to the hospital, but did not survive.
The driver of the Murano - 26 year-old Starr Madrid - got a citation for not restraining Sanchez in the back seat.
