SHARJAH // A one-year-old Emirati boy was run over and killed by a car in the Talaa area of Sharjah.
The accident happened yesterday around midday after the boy left his family's villa and ran out into the road, a police spokesman said.
The car's driver, together with the boy's relatives, took him to the nearby Al Qassimi hospital where he was admitted to the intensive care unit.
"He had severe wounds on most of his body and despite all efforts by our team to save his life, we lost him," a hospital spokeswoman said.
Police are investigating the accident and have appealed to motorists not to speed, especially in residential areas.

Is it worth it? We put cheesecake frap to the test.
The verdict from the nutritionists is damning. But does a cheesecake frappuccino taste good enough to merit the indulgence?
My advice is to only go there if you have unusually sweet tooth. I like my puddings, but this was a bit much even for me. The first hit is a winner, but it's downhill, slowly, from there. Each sip is a little less satisfying than the last, and maybe it was just all that sugar, but it isn't long before the rush is replaced by a creeping remorse. And half of the thing is still left.
The caramel version is far superior to the blueberry, too. If someone put a full caramel cheesecake through a liquidiser and scooped out the contents, it would probably taste something like this. Blueberry, on the other hand, has more of an artificial taste. It's like someone has tried to invent this drink in a lab, and while early results were promising, they're still in the testing phase. It isn't terrible, but something isn't quite right either.
So if you want an experience, go for a small, and opt for the caramel. But if you want a cheesecake, it's probably more satisfying, and not quite as unhealthy, to just order the real thing.
