QUEENS - A teenage girl was fatally struck by a water delivery truck across the street from a school in Sunnyside, Queens, on Wednesday afternoon, police said.

The incident happened around 3:30 p.m. outside Woodside Intermediate School.

The Ford truck hit two people, including a 16-year-old girl, who died at the scene. The 8-year-old girl who was struck is in stable condition.

Sources told FOX 5 NY's Linda Schmidt that the girls are believed to be sisters.
