After breaking the ATV death record last weekend, two more deaths have been added this week in the Mountain State.

A New Jersey man Friday was the 42nd person to be killed.

Ronald Knemoller, 41, of Woodbridge, N.J., was driving up a hill in Mineral Wells when his ATV flipped yesterday morning, throwing him backward and his daughter and nephew off the vehicle.

He died from blunt-force trauma to the head.

The 41st death was recorded when the body of a man was discovered near his ATV.
