The driver has not yet been heard by investigators
Shortly after the collision, a skateboard was found nearby, but it is unknown whether the teenager was riding on it or holding it in his hand.
Still, the motorist – a woman aged around fifty – had hit him head-on.
Very seriously injured, the teenager was rescued by firefighters and medically treated by a Samu 38 team before being transported to hospital by the Civil Security helicopter. The Voiron police officers, for their part, carried out the usual findings on the scene and opened an investigation.
The driver of the vehicle in question, physically unharmed but very psychologically shocked, was then taken care of by rescuers and taken to hospital. She has not yet been able to be heard by investigators who are still seeking to establish the precise circumstances of this tragic accident.
