2 hurt in separate North Country ATV crashes

Two ATV drivers were hospitalized in separate crashes Saturday in the northern part of Coos County, authorities said.

In Pittsburg, Lucinda Cody, 57, of South Weymouth, Mass., suffered non-life threatening injuries when the ATV she was driving rolled over into a ditch before 1 p.m. on a steep portion of trail near the summit of Shatney Mountain, according to Fish and Game.

She was taken to Upper Connecticut Valley Hospital in Colebrook and later to Littleton Hospital.

About 5:30 p.m., conservation officers investigated a second ATV crash on Ridge Road in Stewartstown.

Michael Jenness, 53, of Plymouth suffered non-life threatening injuries when the ATV he was driving rolled over as he braked sharply to turn around on the gravel road, officials said. He was taken to Upper Connecticut Valley Hospital, according to Fish and Game.

Authorities said neither rider was wearing helmets or protective gear.
