This is VERY brief, but the child is being raised by ghosts who come from an old era, and so the author points out that they hadn't learned it was wrong to hit kids then, so he is struck once by his parents as a disciplinary action. it's not discussed graphically.

a police car hits a person. That person is not exactly human and did it on purpose to cause a diversion. The car and humans inside are physically fine. The non-human sustains no lasting harm.
