(KMZA)--A Frankfort man charged in connection with an all-terrain vehicle wreck last year that claimed the life of a Frankfort woman has entered into a plea agreement.

Weston Adams recently pleaded no contest in Marshall County District court to amended charges of felony aggravated battery and misdemeanor vehicular homicide, canceling a jury trial that had been set this week in the case.

Adams had originally been charged with involuntary manslaughter while driving under the influence and two other counts.

Sentencing was set for July 9.

Authorities say Adams was driving an ATV north of Vliets early May 6 of last year when he crossed into a ditch along K-97 and the ATV rolled onto its side. A passenger, 22-year-old Arianna Lynn Martin, was ejected and the ATV came to rest on top of her.

Martin was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.
