Authorities: 77-year-old man fatally injured in ATV accident

NASHUA — A 77-year-old man was fatally injured when an all-terrain vehicle rolled onto him in northeast Iowa, authorities said.

The accident happened Tuesday afternoon near Nashua. The Iowa State Patrol said Larry Moine was igniting some grass fires on his property when he tried to ascend a steep embankment. The ATV didn’t make it and instead rolled atop him.

He was pronounced dead later at Floyd County Medical Center in Charles City, authorities said.
