An officer with the Georgia State Patrol says 15-year-old Tucker Slaughter, a West Laurens High student, died after his four- wheeler crashed on Alcorn Road in Dexter.
That happened Tuesday afternoon. Laurens County schools were closed for the day due to the weather.
The officer says the boy and a passenger were ejected from the ATV. Slaughter's passenger had minor injuries.
He says the two, along with a friend in another four-wheeler, were driving to see friends.
No charges were filed.
