3 YEAR-OLD STILL IN COMA S.S.

A 3 YEAR-OLD, WHO SUFFERED MASSIVE HEAD TRAUMA IN A HEAD-ON CRASH LAST WEEK ON HIGHWAY 156 IS STILL IN AN INDUCED COMA. THE PRE-SCHOOLER WAS 1 OF 10 PEOPLE INJURED IN THE 2-VEHICLE ACCIDENT NEAR FAIRVIEW ROAD IN HOLLISTER. THE DRIVER OF THE PICK-UP TRUCK, THAT RAN A RED LIGHT AND CAUSED THE ACCIDENT, HAS NOT YET BEEN CHARGED.
