Six juveniles were involved in a crash of two off road in Pike County at 4:45pm Saturday.

        The Indiana DNR reports it happened on Pike County Road 900-south about a half mile west of State Road 61.

        One of the vehicles was following behind another when the lead off road vehicle slowed down. The operator of the one behind did not realize the other was slowing and a rear end collision occurred.  Six teens age 13 to 16 were on the vehicles and all were ejected.  Two were hospitalized.  One was taken to Daviess Community Hospital in Washington with head and arm injuries; the other was taken to Memorial Hospital in Jasper for road rash and a wrist injury.
