A 29-year-old Snohomish man broke his leg Sunday evening when his all-terrain vehicle hit a stump near Lake Tyee in eastern Skagit County, sheriff’s deputies said.

The man’s girlfriend rode her ATV to the road call 911, and a friend who was on a dirt bike stayed with the man near Suiattle River Road, deputies said.

The accident was reported at about 5:05 p.m. Volunteers with the county’s Search and Rescue team helped transport the man to an ambulance, deputies said. He was then taken to an area hospital. Information on his medical condition wasn’t available this afternoon.
