Indiana Conservation Officers are investigating an off-road vehicle wreck Tuesday morning that left two juveniles injured — one seriously — in Jennings County.

Shortly after 11 a.m., emergency responders were dispatched to the area near the 9000 block of County Road 850W in Paris Crossing for a wreck with injuries.

The initial investigation shows when a 14-year-old juvenile was operating a side-by-side on the roadway, they lost control of the vehicle, causing it to roll onto the driver’s side and pinning them underneath.

The juveniles were not wearing helmets or safety harnesses at the time of the accident.

The juvenile operator was transported via StatFlight helicopter to Norton Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. The juvenile passenger was transported to an area hospital with minor injuries.

Other assisting agencies include Indiana State Police, Jennings County Sheriff’s Department and Jennings County Emergency Medical Service.

State law requires riders younger than 18 to wear a Department of Transportation approved helmet. Information on ORV laws and safe operating procedures is online at offroad-ed.com/in/handbook and on.in.gov/offroading.
