Harris County authorities are investigating a traffic accident in which a 4-year-old boy died after a sport utility vehicle struck him as the driver backed out from a curb.

Authorities said Devon Osborn walked behind the vehicle and was partially run over by the right rear tire of the vehicle in a northwest Harris County neighborhood Saturday night.

He was taken by helicopter to Memorial Hermann Hospital-The Texas Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

The Houston Chronicle reported that authorities said the death appears to be accidental.

No charges have been filed.
