Vigil planned for Greene Co. teen killed in ATV crash
A vigil will be held tonight for the 17-year-old boy who died Sunday afternoon when his all-terrain vehicle crashed into two trees in Wayne Township.
The vigil for Samuel Thomas Young will be held at 8:30 p.m. at the Waynesburg Central High School football stadium.
Young was driving his ATV on Bell Run Road near his Spraggs home when he drove off the road and struck the trees at 2:20 p.m., Greene County Coroner Gregory Rohanna said in a news release.
The coroner’s office pronounced him dead at the scene about an hour later. An autopsy is planned, although the coroner did not say when it will be conducted.
State police, who are investigating the crash, did not say if he was riding with anyone else or what caused him to lose control.
