Two children and their mother were hit by a car Thursday morning in Pacheco , according to the California Highway Patrol and the Contra Costa Fire Protection District.
The accident was reported just after 7 a.m. at Second Avenue and Contra Costa Boulevard in Contra Costa County, when the CHP said a driver trying to turn on his windshield wipers ran into the woman and three children.
Fire Marshal Robert Marshall said the children - ages 3 and 5- were airlifted to the hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries. The mother and another child only had minor injuries.
About a half an hour later in a separate incident, a car crashed into a home in unincorporated Pacheco in the 4900 block of Pacheco Boulevard, according to CHP Officer John Fransen.
