Officer Nicholas Antonucci, who was in the area, responded to the call at 8:20 a.m. Tuesday, March 12, Police Chief Joseph Tracy said.
The officer found the 44-year-old father and his two girls -- ages 7 and 10 -- injured, the chief said.
They apparently had been on Charles Street crossing Kay Street in the crosswalk on their way to the T. Baldwin Demarest School when a driver making a left in his 2016 Hyundai hit them, he said.
Old Tappan ambulances brought them to area hospitals with injuries that weren't considered life-threatening, Tracy said.
The 51-year-old driver, also from Old Tappan, remained at the scene and received court summonses for failing to yield to pedestrians and careless driving, the chief said.
