A tragic incident shocked Hawaii residents when a 13-year-old boy tragically lost his life after his younger brother lost control of a rough terrain vehicle (RTV), causing it to flip over and trap the elder one under its weight.
Both the victim, identified as Maxim Beregovoy, and the 8-year-old brother were riding a Kubota RTV X900 on Puukala Road in the Kailua-Kona settlement last Tuesday evening (October 22) when they veered off the path and crashed into a barrier.
Authorities arrived quickly at the scene to free the boy from underneath the vehicle and transported him to the Kona Community Hospital. Maxim’s injuries proved fatal, however, and he was pronounced dead at 7 pm that day.
