Turner remains hospitalized with a head injury, broken ribs, and a broken leg. His mother, Marilyn Turner, said he had to be intubated.
“It’s a shame. It’s pitiful. I’m hurt,” she told Action News.
Family members say Turner had just bought the scooter to commute to a new job he was scheduled to start the day after the crash.
