Woman injured in ATV crash

MARQUETTE — One woman was transported to UP Health System-Marquette for evaluation of multiple injuries after a single-vehicle ATV crash at 3:20 p.m. Thursday in Ely Township, according to the Marquette County Sheriff’s Office.

A 47-year-old female of Winfield, Illinois, was travelling west on Bryan Creek Road on a 2002 Polaris Trail Boss 330 when she lost control as she was turning into a private drive. The ATV rolled over, ejecting the woman from the ATV. She then came to rest on her back in a wooded area near Bryan Creek Road, around 3 miles east of County Road 581.

The woman, who was not wearing a helmet at the time of the incident, was then transported to UPHS-Marquette for evaluation of her injuries.

According to police, the woman’s name is being withheld at this time and her condition is not yet known.

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Ishpeming Township Fire and Ely Township first responders assisted the Marquette County Sheriff’s Office at the scene.
