(KMZA)--A judge is to issue a decision later this month on whether a Frankfort man stands trial on a felony charge of involuntary manslaughter while driving under the influence of alcohol.

27-year-old Weston Adams is charged in connection with an all-terrain vehicle crash in May that claimed the life of 22-year-old Arianna Lynn Martin, of Frankfort.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reports Martin was driving an ATV north of Vliets early May 6 when he crossed into a ditch along K-87 and the ATV rolled onto its side.

Martin was ejected and the ATV came to rest on top of her.

She was transported to Community Memorial Healthcare in Marysville where she was pronounced dead.

A preliminary hearing was held earlier this month in the case.

Marshall County Attorney Laura Johnson-McNish told MSC News Magistrate Judge Angela Hecke took the case under advisement, and is to issue a decision December 31 on whether Martin should be bound over for trial.
