MONROE, Ut. — A scary situation in Monroe Thursday night could've ended up a lot worse, police say, had it not been for a helmet.
Just before 8pm The Sevier County Sheriff's Office got word of an ATV crash.
A kid reportedly lost control of their four-wheeler, and collided through a barbed wire fence.
In the process, their head hit a pole marking a gas liner.
Although seriously injured, the rider was wearing a helmet potentially saving their life.
The Sheriff's Office shared some photos of damage caused to the helmet as proof.
