The 12-year-old from Cincinnati passed away on Monday evening at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, where he was receiving treatment to injuries sustained in a July 6 crash on Industrial Drive in Florence, Kentucky.  

Hunter was the passenger of a vehicle that was struck by a vehicle that was turning from a parking lot onto Industrial Drive.
