The 4-year-old Franklin girl was at the curb with her father, waiting for traffic to clear, when she unexpectedly darted into the road. The child cleared the westbound lane of Liberty Pike, but ran into the path of a car traveling east. She is in critical but stable condition at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital in Nashville.
