Greenwich boy, 12, dies from accident injuriesA 12-year-old boy has died from injuries he sustained when he collided head-on with his younger brother in a cycle accident on a wooded trail at the Coventry-West Greenwich line. The Coventry Police Department said today that Taber Kelley, 12, of West Greenwich, was pronounced dead shortly after arriving yesterday at Kent Hospital, in Warwick. His 11-year-old brother, Preston Kelley, was taken to Hasbro Children's Hospital with severe injuries to his left forearm and lower left leg. The brothers were riding on a wooded trail off Mishnock Road with two other boys. -- With reports from Journal staff writer Lisa Vernon-Sparks One of the other boys, Jake Bercham, 14, of West Greenwich, injured his right shoulder in a secondary collision. The fourth boy, Zakery Duclos, 15, of East Greenwich, was not injured; he attempted to perform CPR until help arrived, the Coventry police said. It was not clear this afternoon what type of cycle the boys were riding. All four, however, were wearing protective equipment and helmets, police said yesterday. The police said the state medical examiner's office will perform an autopsy tomorrow. -- With reports from Journal staff writer Lisa Vernon-Sparks Posted by Mike McDermott CommentsPost a commentPlease be civil.
