I was riding along the street and a little boy ran into the road from my right. He ran out from between the two buildings on my right. One building is on the corner. The next one to it is the Post Office. When the boy ran out, I turned left away from him and hit one of the parked cars. It was the second car back from the cross road on the left. It was parked right outside the police station. The policeman heard the bang and came out at once.
