MARS HILL, Me  (WGAN)   A Westfield man died last evening following an ATV crash in Mars Hill.

At about 5:40, Gary Webber, 70, was traveling north on the 633 Boarder Trail (also East Ridge Road) when his Polaris ATV left the trail striking a steep ditch and trees.

Webber was pronounced dead at the scene by EMS. Webber was riding with a second ATV operated by Patrick O’Leary-Plaud, also from Westfield.

O’Leary-Plaud drove to the nearest residence and called 911.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation by game wardens.
