Toddler Injured in Accident During 'Sideshow' Is Recovering

A 2-year-old boy is in recovery after suffering a broken neck in an accident caused by a ‘sideshow’ on the freeway in San Leandro last month, according to KCBS.

The incident occurred at about 10:15 p.m. on March 20 on a stretch of southbound I-880 near the Marina Boulevard exit after a silver sedan reportedly began doing donuts. He ended up crashing into the median wall.

According to KCBS, the driver’s antics caused traffic to stop.

That’s when a white box truck, which couldn’t stop in time, rammed into the back of Jasmine Glenn’s black Impala, KCBS reports.

Glenn’s mother and 2-year-old son were inside.

The boy was taken to the Hayward Kaiser but doctors initially could not find anything wrong with him after doing scans of his neck and head, according to KCBS.

Because Corey couldn’t straighten his head, Glenn later took him to an Oakland hospital where doctors discovered his neck was broken.

Doctors performed surgery on his neck last Wednesday, KCBS announced on Monday.

Corey is now recovering and must where a neck brace for at least three months.

Meanwhile, authorities are still searching for the driver of the silver sedan.
