The Center For Disease Control reports that 4 times as many children between 5 and 14 are killed on Halloween compared to any other time of the year. Unfortunately for a Lake County family, a young boy was killed when attempting to cross State Road 50 while being supervised by and adult on Halloween evening. This family did everything right, it seems, since the child was reportedly crossing the busy road at an intersection with adult supervision. It is critical for drivers to pay special attention when children are out trick or treating or going to other Halloween events.
