KINGMAN, Ariz. - The Mohave County Sheriff's Office says a 9-year-old boy who had been reported missing was found dead, apparently having died accidentally as he rode an off-road vehicle in a rural area near Kingman.

The Sheriff's Office says Alexander Lee of Golden Valley was last seen Thursday at noon while riding a quad and that searchers found him dead Thursday night in a wash.

The office said in a statement that the quad was nearby and that it appeared the boy had been ejected from the vehicle.
