SEYMOUR, Ind. (WISH) — Two children were hurt when their ATV crashed in Seymour on Saturday afternoon.

A 12-year-old was driving a side-by-side style ATV in the 8000 block of Lutheran Lake Road when they lost control and the machine flipped onto its side, according to conservation officers.

A 16-year-old passenger was not hurt, but the 12-year-old was airlifted to Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health in serious condition with head and chest injuries.

Neither was wearing a helmet or seatbelt when the ATV crashed, according to officers.

The children have not been identified.
