The 13-year-old operator reportedly lost control of the ORV after making contact with another rider’s dirt bike, causing the ORV to collide with a tree. The impact caused the juvenile to be thrown from the ORV.

Conservation officers say the teen was not wearing a helmet or an other protective riding gear at the time of the crash.
