A nine-year-old child was killed in a head-on crash in Madison County involving two SUVs.

New York State Police say the accident happened shortly after 6:30 on Wednesday morning along State Route 31 in the town of Sullivan, near Smith Ridge Road.

Troopers investigating the accident believe that 53-year-old Abdirashid Noor of Syracuse was attempting to pass a line of vehicles headed westbound in the eastbound lane on 31. Abdirashid would crash head-on with a vehicle operated by 29-year-old Jordan King of Fayetteville.

King's passenger is the nine-year-old child who was killed, police said.

King, Noor and a passenger in Noor's vehicle were all injured but their injuries are considered non-life threatening, state police officials said. The cause of the accident is ongoing, officials said.

Route 31 between Bridgeport Kirkville Road and Smith Ridge Road in Sullivan was closed for several hours following the crash.

Thus far no tickets have been issued.
