"He was getting out of the car, everyone was exiting the car. As quell was getting out, the lady was speeding into the park," said Salena Day, Marquell's cousin.

"He took about two steps, ran my baby over, then went back and ran my baby over," said Marquita.

Surveillance video shows first responders arriving after 6 p.m.

You can hear people screaming and people watching from across the street as paramedics tried to save the boy’s life.

The family says the driver stayed at the scene.

"Slow down when kids are around, period. Especially in a parking lot and children are running everywhere," added Salena.
