Cherokee County authorities told the AJC Wednesday they have no new information on a boy who was critically injured after sledding under a parked car Monday.

The 9-year-old boy, whose name was not released, suffered head injuries and facial fractures, said Tim Cavender with the Cherokee County fire department.

The child was transported to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite.

The incident happened just before noon on Woodview Lane, just south of Holly Springs, Cavender said.
