ABERDEEN, Wash. (AP) — Two people were killed in separate ATV accidents over the weekend on logging roads in Grays Harbor County.

Undersheriff Rick Scott says 43-year-old Arthur Erickson of Aberdeen was killed Saturday when his four-wheel ATV struck a stump.

On Sunday evening two teens on four-wheel ATV ran off a road, killing 14-year-old Joshua Johnson of Hoquiam. The 16-year-old driver was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with a head injury and is listed Monday in serious condition.

Scott says speed was a factor in both crashes.
