Greenville teen dies in Mercer County crash
GREENE TWP., Pa. (WKBN) – A 17-year-old Greenville boy on a minibike was killed in a crash over the weekend in Mercer County.
The crash happened around 5:30 p.m. Saturday.
A family member identified the victim as Ethan Guthrie, who attended Reynolds High School.
A Pennsylvania State Police report states that the teenager was driving a minibike traveling westbound on state Route 58 in the eastbound lane. A 2003 Lincoln Town Car driven by a 23-year-old man from Jamestown was traveling east in the eastbound lane.
The report states that the Town Car swerved to the right to avoid a head-on crash, while the minibike swerved to the left and hit the front end of the Town Car.
Guthrie, who was wearing a helmet, was transported to UPMC Greenville but died from his injuries.
Pennsylvania State Police were investigating the crash.
