Three men have been arrested after a young child was seriously injured in an alleged hit-and-run incident in Cambridgeshire.
The boy was riding his bicycle to primary school when he was hit by a grey Citroen Picasso at about 08:35 GMT on Tuesday in Townsend, Soham.
His injuries were said to be serious, but not life-threatening, and his mother, who was walking with him, suffered minor injuries.
The men, aged 29, 36 and 59, all from Soham, allegedly left the car at the scene but were later arrested on suspicion of robbery.
Cambridgeshire Police said the 29-year-old was also arrested on suspicion of assault, dangerous driving, failing to stop, driving without insurance and criminal damage.
The force said the robbery offence did not relate to the victims in the crash.
