A collision between two ATVs Monday evening left one driver with serious injuries. Forty-one-year-old Jeremy Gully was taken to University Hospital in Columbia for treatment following the collision at about 7:55 pm on Falk, near Fern Drive, north of Purdin.

They were not wearing helmets.
They were both arrested by troopers. Gully was arrested for alleged DWI Chronic Offender and Driving While Revoked. Bontrager was arrested for alleged no valid license and assault. He was held at the Macon County Sheriff’s Office.
