Two boys lost control of a four wheeler Monday morning and luckily it didn't take a turn for the worst.

Williamstown Police say two brothers were riding on their grandfather's ATV when the three-year-old hit the thumb controlled accelerator.

They drove it into a flag pole at an Enviro-Tech International facility on Armstrong Avenue in Williamstown.

Neither boy was wearing a helmet.

The three-year-old was taken by private vehicle to the hospital. On Monday afternoon he was no longer listed as a patient.

Police say he suffered from a bump on his head.

The other rider is a 14-year-old who police say appeared to be fine.
