BOISE (AP) - Police say a 16-year-old student who was hit by a car in front of his southwestern Idaho high school was treated for non-life threatening injures.

The crash was reported soon after 7 a.m. on Friday in Meridian.

The boy was not using a crosswalk and wearing dark clothing when he was struck just before daylight in front of Meridian High School, where he is a student.

Meridian Deputy Police Chief Tracy Basterrechea says the boy's injuries did not appear to be serious and he was expected to be released from a hospital later Friday.

Police do not expect charges to be filed in connection to the accident.
