Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded about 5:35 p.m. Monday, May 19, 2025 to the 27000 block of Chris Larkin Road, Ingleside, for a crash with injuries involving an ATV.

While driving in circles in the yard, the operator lost control and crashed into a tree, causing the ATV to roll on top of the two children. Several bystanders quickly responded and freed the children from beneath the vehicle. The operator was knocked unconscious and sustained serious head trauma in the crash.
The children sustained minor injuries and were transported to an area hospital for evaluation. The operator of the ATV sustained critical injuries and was transported to an area hospital, due to her injuries.
