Police are investigating a crash that took the life of a juvenile and sent another to the hospital.

At about 8:00 p.m., police say two juveniles, riding on one bicycle, attempted to cross Las Vegas Boulevard near Baltimore when they were struck by a pickup truck.

The truck was traveling about 20 mph when it struck the kids.

One juvenile, who was riding on the handle bars of the bike, died while being transported to UMC. The other juvenile is currently at UMC Trauma in critical condition.

The juveniles were not wearing helmets.
