MISSAUKEE COUNTY -- One man is dead and another is seriously injured after an accident involving two snowmobiles in Missaukee County.

The Sheriffs Office says it happened at around 2:30pm Saturday afternoon in a Christmas tree field on Kelly Road in Lake Township.

Authorities say 50 year-old Michael Borgstrom from Lake City was traveling south on a tree lane when he was broadsided by another snowmobile, driven by 36 year-old Jason Jenema.

Borgstrom died at the scene and Jenema was airlifted to a Grand Rapids hospital with serious injuries. The accident remains under investigation.
