The ATV was equipped with an enclosed metal frame passenger compartment with a plastic roof. It also had two bucket type seats equipped a with lap and shoulder safety restraint system. ATV tracks were found exiting the grove onto the church property where the crash occurred. The ATV appears to have entered the church property near the southeast corner and then proceeded west to the parking lot area. The Parking lot has paved roadways with grass parking spaces. The ATV appears to have entered one of the grass parking areas near the southwest corner of the church and began to spin the ATV around doing a \u201cdoughnut.\u201d After spinning approximately 360 degrees the ATV rolled over ejecting the Schiff who became pinned underneath.<\/p>\n

Schiff did not appear to be utilizing the safety restraint system and was not wearing any type of protective head gear at the time of the crash. There was no evidence of other vehicles or persons being involved in this crash. Impairment and distracted driving to not appear to be factors in the crash at this time. No charges are currently anticipated. <\/p>\n
