The child suffered severe head trauma and was transported to the hospital where he is in critical condition.

The dirt bike fled the scene.

"Dirt bikes going back and forth -- there was so much going on, we didn't realize somebody got hit until the ambulance came. Kind of messed up, especially for a child to get hit," said Harold Hadalgo.
