A 17-year-boy was killed in a single-vehicle crash Wednesday evening in Ridgefield.
The crash was reported to police at 7:38 p.m. in the 28800 block of Northwest Main Avenue.
A pickup truck driver took a hard left turn to go south on Main Avenue and lost control of the vehicle, said Battalion Chief Tim Dawdy, spokesman for Clark County Fire & Rescue. The pickup ended up on its top.
The driver was uninjured, but the passenger, a 17-year-old boy, was pronounced dead at the scene, Dawdy said.
Clark County Fire & Rescue has responded to crashes in the same spot that stemmed from the hard left turn. The road does not get much traffic, Dawdy said.
