On Friday, a Gila County Sheriff deputy responded to the Verde Glen area for an ATV accident around noon and then around 5 p.m. another deputy responded to an auto accident with injuries in the Pine area.

On July 4, an 11-year-old girl injured her arm after the ATV she was driving struck a rock. The sheriff’s office responded to the East Verde Park area around 2 p.m. along with an ambulance but due to her injuries, the girl was not taken to the hospital.
