Police are investigating an overnight collision that caused serious injuries in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Around 12:35 a.m. today (Mar. 13), officers and emergency personnel responded to an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) rollover in the area of Garrison Village Drive and Village Road.

Police say a lone male was found pinned under an ATV in critical condition.

“The male was wearing a helmet but was suffering from life threatening injuries,” said police.

The male, identified as a 16-year-old from St. Catharines, was transported to a local hospital and later flown to an out of region hospital for further care.

The ATV, a yellow Suzuki King Quad 700, sustained “considerable damage.”
