A  42-year-old male and an 8-year-old child were involved in a one vehicle motorcycle accident on Hopedale Road at approximately 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.

According to Eagle Pass Fire Chief Manuel Mello, the driver of the motorcycle lost control and went off the road on a curve. 

Both subjects were walking around the scene when medics arrived. The driver had a laceration to his head, and presented some cuts and abrasions to his knees, as well as road rash. 

The 8-year-old suffered less serious injuries. “He had some cuts and abrasions to his lower extremities but nothing major,” said Mello. “EMS arrived on the scene in less than a minute because they were coming back from a previous call and the ambulance was very close by.”

 Both were transferred to Fort Duncan Medical Center for further evaluation. It is unknown if either subject was wearing a helmet.
