The Upshur County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of a 16-month-old Gilmer child. Investigators say during a family gathering on Monday afternoon, a family member intended to run an errand “began moving her car forward and struck the child that had moved into the car’s path.” They transported the child to UT Health-Pittsburg, where she was pronounced dead upon arrival. Officials say all indications are that this was a tragic accident.
