The Hancock County Sheriff’s Office says a 13-year-old was seriously injured when the ATV they were operating collided with a car.

The crash happened at the intersection of County Road 17 and Township Road 150 near Mt. Blanchard at around 3:30 Sunday afternoon.

The sheriff’s office said the 13-year-old, from rural Arlington, was westbound on Township Road 150 and failed to yield at the posted stop sign, entering the path of a car that was southbound on County Road 17 and resulting in a collision.

The 13-year-old was taken by medical helicopter to a hospital in Toledo with serious injuries.

The sheriff’s office said the driver of the car, a 40-year-old from Kenton, fled the scene on foot and his whereabouts were unknown.

The crash remains under investigation.
