A St. Catharines, Ont., teen who rolled an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) in Niagara-on-the-Lake has succumbed to his injuries in hospital just 10 days after the incident, according to police.
The 16-year-old had been in hospital since March 13 after a late Saturday crash in the area of Garrison Village Drive and Village Road.
“A lone male was located pinned under an ATV in critical condition. The male was wearing a helmet but was suffering from life threatening injuries,” Niagara Regional Police (NRPS) said in the initial release after the incident.
The teen, riding a yellow Suzuki King Quad 700, was later airlifted to another hospital in southern Ontario with injuries considered life-threatening.
NRPS detectives say the male driver died in hospital on Thursday.
