CORTEZ, Colo.—A 10-year-old girl has died after she and a friend were struck by a car while bicycling through a downtown Cortez intersection.
The collision happened Sunday evening.
Cortez Police Chief Roy Lane says Sherae House was taken by helicopter to a Grand Junction hospital, where she died from head injuries Monday evening.
