Police in Maryland said two children were struck and killed while walking to grade school Monday morning in Riverdale.

Riverdale police said the two victims were hit at about 8 a.m. near the intersection of Riverdale and Taylor roads — the corner where Riverdale Elementary School is located.

The children, who weren’t identified, died while being treated at a hospital.



Prince George’s County Police said the driver remained at the scene.

The investigation into the crash — and whether or not charges will be brought against the driver — is still ongoing. 

Local ABC affiliate WJLA-TV reported that the suspected driver was affiliated with the school in some way.
