One injured in ATV crash
On August 4, 2026 at approximately 1943 hours, emergency services and law-enforcement were dispatched to the report of a single ATV accident, involving a 15-year-old male, in the 10500 Block of Cedar View Drive in Leiding Township located west of Orr, Minnesota.
The 15-year-old driver was the only occupant on the ATV and he sustained serious injuries after the ATV left the roadway, struck some trees, causing the ATV to lose its front wheel, ejecting the driver.
The Orr and Virginia Ambulances responded and later transported the driver to the Orr airport where he was airlifted to a Duluth area hospital.
Driver inexperience and speed are being considered as contributing factors to this accident.
The incident remains under investigation by the St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office.
