Further reports have emerged about Jamie Lynn Spears’ daughter, who crashed her ATV into a pond at her family property on Sunday (5 February 2017).
You.co.za reported that according to police reports Maddie was trapped by the safety belt when the ATV entered the pond.
“Britney Spears’ niece Maddie had to be airlifted to hospital after the Polaris off-road vehicle she was in flipped over in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana.
Initial reports suggested Jamie Lynn’s child with ex-boyfriend Casey Aldridge had been on a hunting expedition, but authorities reveal the accident happened on family property, as the 25-year-old mom and Maddie’s stepfather Jamie Watson looked on in horror,” says You.co.za.
It was further reported that Maddie had swerved the vehicle, to avoid a ditch, causing her to over-correct before crashing into the pond. Family members were in close proximity of the incident. “The ATV and child were instantly submerged in the water right before their eyes,” say police reports.
Maddie was airlifted to hospital after the family rushed to the water to try and rescue her. She remains critical but stable in hospital.
