A 6-year old Tallmadge boy was critically injured after crashing a bicycle into a car Monday night on the southeast end of Akron.

It happened at Lucy Street and Duane Avenue just before 8pm.

Akron police say the child is at fault but won't get a ticket. The driver of the car did get a citation, not for the crash, but for driving under suspension.

A police reconstruction team is investigating further due to the seriousness of the boy's injuries.
