Chinese girl in hit and run outrage dies

BEIJING — A two-year-old Chinese girl run over by two different vehicles and ignored by passersby has died, state media reported today, in a case that ignited public uproar over what some called the immorality of modern society.

The hospital’s “all-out efforts were ineffective” at saving Wang Yue, the China News Service said. Xinhua news agency said she died of brain failure early today, more than a week after the accident.
