Two Manor HS students injured in early-morning crash
Both drivers have been arrested following an early-morning crash involving seven students from Manor High School.
Only one person was in a white truck, which slid off the road and onto its side, but in a red truck; there were seven teenagers. It appears that the red Toyota was struck on its left front, it wasn’t a head-on but on the front corner of that front panel, said Lt. Lawrence Rideau.
Three of the teenagers were riding in the truck bed. So it’s very dangerous to ride in the back of a pick-up truck at any time, because there is no seat belts back there. It’s easy to get ejected from the back of a pickup truck and that’s what happened in this instance, said Rideau.
