A Macomb County man was injured in a weekend ATV accident near Lexington. According to the Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office, a 27 year old Sterling Heights Man was operating a four wheel ATV on Lakewood Road in Worth Township when he reportedly lost control of the vehicle and was ejected. He was treated at the scene by Croswell EMS and was taken to a Port Huron Hospital for further treatment.
