Teen Dead After Dirt Bike Crash

A 14 year old boy is dead after a tragic accident on Route 121 in Apohaqui. Sergeant Rick Bernard tells CHSJ News the boy was driving an unlicensed dirt bike when it crashed into a truck going the opposite way around 8pm yesterday.

Truck driver and army vet Tony Cyr was one of the first on the scene. He tells CHSJ News he tried to provide whatever help he could, including CPR.


The boy was taken to the Sussex hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Sergeant Bernard tells CHSJ News a traffic re-constructionist is looking into the accident, and the name of the boy is not yet being released.
