The Washington County Sheriff’s Office says the boy was killed Saturday when a vehicle he was riding in crashed near Blair. They haven’t released information about anyone else in the vehicle but no other injuries were reported.

Authorities haven’t released his names but friends identified him as Trent Hill to KETV-TV and WOWT-TV. They say the sophomore was on the wrestling team at Blair High School.

It’s unclear what caused the crash. Authorities say he wasn’t wearing a seat belt.
