By Paragon News Director Paul Joseph –
Tuesday, we reported a story about an 11-year-old Burns Flat boy that died last Friday night in Weatherford as a result of being struck by a vehicle. Hayden Scott Helton’s funeral has been set for Friday at 10 am, however, due to the rain that’s fallen over the last 24-hours, his services have been moved from the 5-plex baseball field in Elk City to the Elk City Pioneer Center.
Police are still declining the release of information regarding the accident that took the life of the child about 7:30 pm at the intersection of North Sixth Street and West Huber Avenue. The incident is still under investigation.
According to a release from the police department, all parties involved with the accident are cooperating with law enforcement and information is expected to be submitted to the District Attorney’s Office when the investigation is complete.
Again, Helton’s funeral services have been moved to the Elk City Pioneer Center and held at 10 am on Friday.
