Two teens were rushed to the hospital on Wednesday night after trespassing at a racing track in Salisbury and racing go-carts on the track, according to state police.

Several juveniles were trespassing at Lime Rock Park around 8:30 p.m. and a 15-year-old-boy and 15-year-old girl collided as they drove go-carts a vendor had brought in for a weekend event, police said.

The girl sustained head and torso injuries and Lifestar airlifted her to Connecticut Children’s Medical Center, where she is in stable condition.

The 15-year-old boy sustained head and arm injuries and was transported to Sharon Hospital.
