On January 10, 2025, at approximately 8:00 pm, God’s Lake Narrow RCMP received a report of a snowmobile collision near the community.
Officers attended to a nearby trail, believed to be where the collision occurred, and located what appeared to be the collision scene but no snowmobile or persons were present.
Officers then attended to the Nursing Station where they located the victim and snowmobile operator.
The investigation has determined that a snowmobile, being operated by a 12-year-old male with a 14-year-old male passenger, was pulling a toboggan with three passengers, all 12-years-of age, when the toboggan struck a tree stump on the path. A 12-year-old female was thrown from the toboggan and suffered life-threatening injuries.
None of the children were wearing helmets.
The snowmobile operator then drove to the Nursing Station to call for help.
The medical van attended to the scene and transported the victim to the Nursing Station where she succumbed to her injuries.
God’s Lake Narrows RCMP continue to investigate.
