A teenager has pleaded guilty to seriously injuring a three-year-old girl in a crash involving an electric dirt bike in Burnley.
The 15-year-old boy, who cannot be named due to his age, appeared at Preston Magistrates' Court Youth Court on Tuesday (September 15).
The boy pleaded guilty to single counts of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, failing to stop, driving without insurance, driving without a licence, and driving without a valid test certificate.
Police said they were called along with other emergency services, to Thompson Park shortly after 1.30pm on March 20 after a three-year-old girl was involved in a crash with an electric bike near the pavilion.
The girl was taken to hospital with serious injuries. Lancashire Police said she has since been discharged and continues to recover.
The boy was bailed ahead of sentencing on October 27.
