(KNSI) – Alcohol appears to be a factor in a crash that sent a man to St. Cloud Hospital after getting pinned under an ATV.
The Cass County Sheriff’s Office says first responders were called to a severe ATV crash around 7:30 on Saturday night in rural Pequot Lakes.

The Pequot Lakes woman and her 59-year-old passenger were ejected off the ATV and pinned underneath.
A person heard the crash, moved the ATV off the victims, and gave medical aid.
The woman was taken to a Brainerd hospital with unknown injuries.
Her passenger, a man from Pequot Lakes, was taken to a St. Cloud Hospital by North Memorial Air Care with serious injuries.
The Sheriff’s Office says alcohol appears to have been a factor in the crash, and the incident remains under investigation.
