15-Year-Old Dies In Crash At Michigan Motocross Track QL8ILe1

A motocross race in Michigan's Thumb area turned tragic this weekend when a 15-year-old boy was killed.

The crash happened at 4 p.m. Saturday at Baja Acres in Tuscola County’s Arbela Township.

On their Facebook page, Tuscola County Sheriff’s Office deputies said they overheard radio traffic from ambulance personnel asking for help with CPR at the racetrack.

“The rider somehow went down and became separated from the dirt bike and the riders behind could not avoid striking him,” reads the county sheriff’s office statement. “CPR was performed by medical staff on scene and the Lifenet helicopter was dispatched. Attempts to save the rider were unsuccessful.”

Reaction from others at the race, and on the circuit was swift.
