CHILLICOTHE, Ohio (AP) — Police say a juvenile riding on the trunk of a vehicle fell and injured his head in the southern Ohio city where another teen died last month after falling off the hood of a vehicle while "car-surfing."
Police in Chillicothe (chihl-ih-KAWTH'-ee) say the boy injured Thursday afternoon fell from a moving vehicle in a residential neighborhood and struck his head on the ground. They said he was flown to a Columbus hospital, and the extent of his injury wasn't known.
Police say the vehicle was driven by an apparently unrelated woman.
No charges had been filed by Thursday night.
The incident comes less than two weeks after a 16-year-old boy fell from a car hood in a Chillicothe parking lot. He died as a result of a severe head injury.
