A 2-year-old boy and his mother were struck by a four-door 2007 white Infinity sedan with a moon roof while crossing at Mascher Street and Lehigh Avenue Monday evening. The car sustained damage to the front drivers' side headlight.

The mother, whom police did not identify, also suffered head injuries. She was released from Temple University Hospital earlier this week.
The incident remains under investigation. Police have not released any more information on possible suspects. There is a $20,000 reward being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.
