A 14-year-old riding an electronic scooter was seriously injured after a crash in Fresno.<\/p>\n

The California Highway Patrol responded to the incident at 5:30 p.m. near Mayfair Drive and Weldon Avenue.<\/p>\n

CHP spokesperson Mike Salas said a 12-year-old girl was riding behind the victim as the two traveled north on Mayfair Drive approaching Weldon Avenue.<\/p>\n

Salas said the 14-year-old failed to stop at a stop sign and entered the intersection directly in front of a westbound Dodge pickup truck, which did not have a stop sign (two-way controlled intersection).<\/p>\n

Salas said the pickup struck the juvenile rider, ejecting her from the e-scooter.<\/p>\n

Neighbors called 911 and rendered aid until emergency crews arrived.<\/p>\n

Salas said the 14-year-old was taken to a hospital with major injuries.<\/p>\n

According to CHP, neither rider wore a helmet.<\/p>\n

The driver of the pickup remained at the scene and cooperated with investigators. Authorities said DUI is not suspected.<\/p>\n
