SCHOTT, Judge.
On June 12, 1968, at about 5:15 P.M., plaintiff, Laura Turner, 62 years of age, was walking on the sidewalk on Plum Street in the City of New Orleans. When she was approximately ten feet from the corner of Dante Street, she was struck from the rear and knocked down by the bicycle being operated by Gregory Bucher, who was then two days short of six years of age. The boy had been riding on the sidewalk in front of his home on Dante Street and had just turned the corner at Plum Street when he saw the plaintiff and was unable to avoid striking her.
