Two Teens Hurt When Dirt Bikes Collide at Gravel Pit

Two New Hampshire teenagers were injured when their dirt bikes collided head-on while they were riding at an inactive gravel pit.

Wheeled vehicles are not permitted at the privately owned property.

The victims, 16 and 17, were wearing helmets at the time of the accident, but the 17 year old was airlifted to Dartmouth Medical Center where he is being treated for serious injuries.owned
