Boy, 4, drowns in ATV crash

A 4-year-old boy died after the all-terrain vehicle he was driving overturned into a creek and pinned him under water, Frederick County Sheriff’s Office said. Fordham Lee Poffenbarger died Sunday after the Saturday evening accident on his family’s property near Middletown. Investigators said the 4-year-old had been riding the ATV that day and took the 210-pound vehicle out for a last spin without his family knowing.
