(KAIR)--A former Atchison County Commissioner is dead, killed Monday in an ATV accident.

64-year-old Mike Bodenhausen died when the ATV he was riding rolled over, pinning him underneath.

Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie tells MSC News Bodenhausen began operating the ATV Monday afternoon to conduct farm-related work; and when he didn't return home by evening, family became concerned, and that's when the accident was discovered.

The fatal crash happened on Bodenhausen's Atchison County property, located at 1951 286th Road, north of Muscotah, sometime between 2:00 Monday afternoon and 8:30 Monday night.

He was pronounced dead just before 9:15.

Bodenhausen served as Second District Atchison County Commissioner from January 2012 until March 2015.
