SANDS TOWNSHIP, MI-- Another person has been hurt in a Marquette County snowmobile accident.
Sheriff’s deputies were called Wednesday around 12:25 p.m. to the Sands Township railroad grade, about 1.5 miles south of Station Road near Trail #8. Jeremy Beerman, 47, of Marquette was eastbound along the power lines when he unexpectedly came upon a ravine near the railroad grade. The snowmobile went airborne for about 60 feet before it landed on the other side.
The impact apparently injured Beerman’s back. He was taken to UPHS-Marquette for treatment.
Alcohol was not a factor in the crash.
