A teenager from Bussey, in southeastern Iowa’s Marion County, died Wednesday when the ATV he was riding struck a tree. The Iowa State Patrol says the 16-year old male was traveling southbound on a private trail inside the city limits of Bussey, when the 2015 4-wheeler he was operating, hit a tree. The impact caused the driver’s head to also strike the tree, causing severe injury. The teen, whose name was withheld, died at the scene.
