The 7 YO girl critically injured in a Dec. 11 ATV crash near Abita Springs has died, the St. Tammany Parish coroner announced yesterday.
The girl was identified as A’yana McDowell of Covington.
The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office said the girl and an adult woman were injured when the four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle they were riding crashed into a tree alongside United Church Road near Lowe Davis Road, shortly before 4 p.m on Dec. 11.
The agency said the woman involved in the crash was taken for hospital treatment of serious injuries, while the girl had to be airlifted to a hospital because of life-threatening injuries. Neither the sheriff’s office or the coroner provided an update on the woman’s condition, or explained her relationship to the girl.
