Duo injured after ATV turns turtle

A teenager and another young man were air-dashed to Georgetown on Monday after the All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) on which they were travelling reportedly crashed at Five Star Backdam Trail, North West District (NWD), Region One (Barima Waini).
Injured are Tony Calistro, 20, of Arucamai Village, NWD and 16-year-old Esau Daniels of Citrus Grove, Port Kaituma, NWD.
Based on reports received, on the day in question, at about 2:00h, the ATV bearing registration number CF6803 was transporting fuel from Five Star Landing to the backdam.
It is alleged that while the driver, a 46-year-old male of 4 Miles, Port Kaituma, was descending a hill, he lost control of the vehicle and it thus flipped several times, causing the two teenagers to be flung into some nearby bushes.
As a result of the incident, both Daniels and Calistro sustained injuries to their bodies. They were picked up in a conscious state and transported to Port Kaituma District Hospital, where they were treated and admitted as patients.
The two were later transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where they are receiving further medical attention. The driver of the ATV was arrested and is assisting with the investigations.
