Print Comment
WINCHESTER BAY: A Canadian man was injured Saturday in an all-terrain vehicle crash on the sand dunes near Winchester Bay.

Joachim Ruether, 49, of Vancouver, British Columbia, was riding a Polaris 250 when he came over the top of a dune and crashed around 12:30 p.m., according to a Douglas County Sheriff’s Office report. Ruether was thrown off the ATV and complained of back pain.

He was taken to Lower Umpqua Hospital in Reedsport and was later transferred to Sacred Heart Medical Center in Eugene, an LUH spokeswoman said. Information on his condition was not available.
