A 13-year-old boy was killed after police say a tractor he was riding overturned on a farm in Franklin Township, New Jersey.
It happened just after 5:30 Monday afternoon on Swedesboro Road near the New Jersey Turnpike.
Police say the boy was helping a family member dig a hole using the tractor when it overturned and trapped the boy underneath.
First responders found the boy unconscious and unresponsive, and worked together to lift the tractor off of the child.
He was taken to a nearby hospital where he later died of his injuries.
A man who on the tractor with the boy was treated for minor injuries.
