DOUGLASVILLE, Ga. (AP) — Douglas County authorities say a 4-year-old boy died after being accidentally run over in his family's driveway.

County Coroner Randy Daniel tells the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (http://bit.ly/1swDZUV ) 4-year-old Messiah Huiel ran behind a car as his grandfather was backing out of the driveway Wednesday night and was taken to WellStar Douglas Hospital in Douglasville, where he was pronounced dead.

Daniel calls the incident a tragic accident and says the boy's autopsy is being conducted at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation's crime lab.

Douglasville is about 20 miles west of downtown Atlanta.
