5-year-old in critical condition

Monday, May 7, 2001 | 11:47 a.m.

A 5-year-old boy remains in critical condition at University Medical Center after being trapped in the trunk of a car for more than 30 minutes Sunday afternoon.

The boy was reportedly playing hide and go seek in a dirt lot behind the stands of the Bullring track at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, track spokesman Jeff Motley said.

The boy apparently hid in the trunk of his mother's car around 3:30 p.m. He was taken by helicopter to UMC.
