BROOKLYN — A child in a stroller and a woman pushing it were hit by a car in Dyker Heights Wednesday morning, officials and witnesses said.

The pair were hit near 67th Street and 11th Avenue about 10:30 a.m., an FDNY spokesman said.

"Cops and the ambulance were here. They had the baby in the ambulance," said witness Saher Erian, 44.

The woman "was shocked about what happened" to the kid, Erian said.

They were taken to Lutheran Medical Center, the spokesman said. Their condition was not immediately clear.

The driver remained on the scene, witnesses said.

NYPD officials did not immediately have further information.
