A LaSalle man remains in hospital with serious injuries after an ATV crash in Amherstburg over the weekend and police say charges may be pending.
Windsor-Essex EMS along with police and fire personnel responded to the 4900-block of the 4th Concession N in Amherstburg at about 12:30am on Sunday. Two people, both from LaSalle, were sent to hospital with injuries after being involved in an ATV crash.
