HUNTINGTON, Mass. (WGGB) – Two Huntington residents are in the hospital after their dirt bike crashed.
Just after midnight Thursday, a trooper on patrol on Route 112 came across a dirt bike that had crashed near the roadway.
That trooper heard a voice off in the woods and found two people – 21-year-old Dakota Cornelius and 22-year-old Stefanie Maxwell, both of Huntington – who had been thrown from the bike and down an icy embankment to the bank of the Westfield River.
An investigation found that Cornelius had been allegedly operating the bike with no headlights and was doing so while impaired by alcohol.
Cornelius is facing a number of charges including operating under the influence of liquor causing serious bodily injury, operating a recreational vehicle under the influence of liquor, and operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license.
Cornelius and Maxwell were taken to Baystate Medical Center with serious non-life threatening injuries.
First of all its snowing and there is snow out now. Why in the heck would you ride a DIRT bike in the snow?
Let’s be honest… The police should’ve left him there.
Guess the OUI addresses that question
I wonder why they changed DUI to OUI?
First off people do **** when there not spose to.. Second I know that girl well so stfu about dumb ****.. Hope yer ok Steph
dumb and dumber….
Well… obviously they were intoxicated… how the hell else could they stay warm enough to ride a dirtbike through sub zero temperatures at midnight in December? Duh. As a side note, two guys on a dirtbike is just a hilarious sight. I wish there were video.
I believe it’s january isn’t it. . Not December. . I also believe there was a person on the bike named Stephanie, John so that would make it a guy and a girl on the bike not two guys. .. There are more people in this world that can’t read than I originally thought. .
Lol i dont care who knew them, stupid is stupid. Not one thing done by these people showed any intelligence. It was the trifecta of stupid. No lights on the bike, intoxicated, and driving a dirtbike in this kind of weather.
Hey John u dip**** it’s January, get back in your cave, and the rest of you ******** he’s innocent until proven guilty in the court of law
That’s about as dumb as it get’s.I don’t even like snowmobiling when it’s that cold out.
Yeah, my bad. But not sure how “innocent until proven guilty” applies here… they were found in drunk in a ditch next to a crashed bike. I’ll get back in my cave now.
