RCMP continue to investigate a fatal snowmobile collision in Porcupine Provincial Forest over the long weekend.
On Friday, an 80-year-old man from Minitonas was travelling behind another snowmobile, when he veered off the groomed trail and collided with a cluster of trees.
The other snowmobile operator realized the 80-year-old wasn’t following him anymore, and he turned around to find the male a short distance away with life-threatening injuries.
The injured male was transported to Provincial Road 365, where he was attended to by EMS and the RCMP, but he succumbed to his injuries.
