ROSEBURG, Ore. — The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office says a Port Angeles teenager was killed in a crash at Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area near Winchester Bay.

Sheriff’s spokesman Dwes Hutson said today that 16-year-old motorcyclist Mason Zigler was killed Thursday evening when he collided with a side-by-side ATV driven by 45-year-old Christopher Cowen of Springfield, Ore.

Cowen suffered minor injuries but did not need medical attention. Cowen’s 22-year-old passenger, his daughter Amy, was treated for minor injuries at a nearby hospital.
