Motocross rider transported to hospital Saturday night after incident at Heritage Park
CHILLIWACK — Chilliwack firefighters and local paramedics were dispatched to Heritage Park in Chilliwack over the weekend after getting reports that an underage motocross rider may have injured himself riding.
According to scanner traffic, Chilliwack Fire Department Engine 4 and B.C. EHS paramedics were called to 44140 Luckakuck Way Saturday night between 9:45 p.m. and 10 p.m. for reports of an injured 14-year-old male who flipped over his handlebars. Fire crews were advised by dispatch to meet at the back of the building.
Engine 4 crews arrived on scene first at about 9:52 p.m. just prior to paramedics. The first patient was stabilized.
Fire crews then learned there was a second patient, an 18-year-old with a possible femur fracture. Scanner traffic did not indicate whether this individual was also a motocross rider, though it’s possible.
