PALMER, MI-- Two 13-year-old girls have been injured in a four-wheeler accident in Marquette County.
Sheriff’s deputies say the crash happened Monday around 6:45 p.m. along the power line just north of Kirkpatrick Avenue in Palmer.
The 13-year-old female driver from Palmer was westbound with a 13-year-old female passenger from Ishpeming when high grass prevented her from seeing an embankment. The ATV hit the embankment and rolled over on top of the girls. The driver’s father was at the scene and was able to lift the four-wheeler off of them.
Both girls were taken to Marquette General Hospital, treated and later released.
