WALLACE, W.Va. (AP) - Authorities say an 11-year-old boy has died after an all-terrain vehicle crash in West Virginia.

Officials say the boy’s ATV was the only vehicle involved in the crash. Deputies say it doesn’t look like he was wearing a helmet.
The boy’s family members were also in the area driving ATVs at the time of the crash and rendered aid until emergency personnel arrived.
