According to investigators the juvenile ran a stop sign, colliding with the postal truck.
The impact forced the postal truck off the road and into a stop sign, police said. The truck overturned on its right side, ejecting the driver and pinning her under the vehicle.
The boy fled the scene but returned with his family, police said. He has been arrested.
The postal employee was transported to a hospital with head injuries and a possible fractured or dislocated hip, police said. She was reported in stable condition

@ Ken
You fracture an dislocate body parts as you go flying out?
That actor that just crashed an burned? I bet he could tell you if he was alive?
Maybe there were so many parcels to keep jumping out of the truck and did not have time to keep buckling up
How do you get ejected from a vehicle if you are wearing the seat belt
There are no such things as accidents? In the postal vortex.
You all know it’s your fault. We take blame for nothing.
The injured carrier will probably get written up for delaying the mail by getting in an accident
