A 50-year-old Germantown man was killed early Sunday morning in an ATV accident near his home.

He was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident at 2:33 a.m.

“Somehow he was ejected from the vehicle, the ATV, but it was not witnessed,” Moss said, adding the vehicle was a two-seat ATV.

Brandmeyer died as a result of injuries to his head and chest.

Moss said the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the accident.
