ATV Crash with Injuries

4-year-old sustains significant head injury after ATV crash.

On April 18, 2020 at 2:45 p.m., Stearns County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the 22000 block of 23rd Avenue in St. Augusta for an ATV crash with injuries.

According to Sheriff Steve Soyka, deputies arrived and found a 4-year-old male with a head injury. After speaking to his parents, it was determined the 4-year-old hopped onto their small 50cc ATV after his siblings had gotten off. The 4-year-old drove over a dirt mound, which dropped about 4-5 feet. He was wearing a helmet, but still sustained a significant head injury.

North Air transported the juvenile male to Minneapolis Children’s Hospital.

St. Augusta Rescue and Mayo Ambulance also assisted on the scene.
