Woodtv.com, "Four wheeler accident kills promising baseball player"

An 18-year-old baseball player from Whitehall was killed in a four wheeler accident Friday night on Whitneyville road. Benjamin Peterson was visiting friends in the Cascade Township area on the eve of a baseball game when he took a Yamaha four wheeler for a ride. On the gravel driveway, Peterson lost control of the ATV and was thrown over the stone sidewall of the bridge he was crossing.

Peterson's parents thought they might be interviewed one day about Ben, but they anticipated it would be for his athletic success and not a tragic accident.
