A 9-year-old boy’s grandmother was tragically killed in Florida when the child accidentally crashed an ATV, causing it to roll over on top of her, according to a report.
Devin Griffith was driving the vehicle on a private trail in Osceola County with his grandmother and another relative on Friday afternoon when he swerved out the way of another ATV traveling in the opposite direction, the Miami Herald reported.
“The driver stated that as another ATV was traveling south on the same trail, he moved, in order to let the other ATV pass,” the Florida Highway Patrol said.
The boy veered into another trail and hit a brim, which caused the ATV to overturn and fall on top of his grandmother, 58-year-old Laura Bizzell, killing her, the news outlet reported.
The other passenger on the ATV, 53-year-old Samuel Christmas, survived.
