ROCK, MI-- A Delta County man died Saturday from injuries sustained in an ATV accident near Rock.
Around 2:45 p.m. two conservation officers from the Department of Natural Resources heard a report of the accident over their police radios and responded to the scene.
They say Charles Dedic, 84, had been riding his side-by-side ATV alone on his property when he lost control of the machine. It rolled over, ejected Dedic, and pinned him underneath, face-down in a water hole.
Dedic’s son discovered his father about a half-hour later and called 911. The conservation officers administered CPR until first responders arrived from Rock.
Attempts to resuscitate Dedic were unsuccessful. He died at the scene.
