MONTREAL – A man in his 60s has died after striking a tree with a snowmobile in Quebec’s Outaouais region.
Police say they received a call about a collision on a snowmobile trail around 10:30 a.m. today in Low, Que., about 40 kilometres northwest of Gatineau.
Quebec provincial police spokesperson Sgt. Laurie Avoine says the snowmobiler deviated from the trail for unknown reasons before crashing into the tree.
Avoine says he was alone on the snowmobile at the time and was thrown off the vehicle after the impact.
The man was taken to hospital where he was declared dead.
The investigation is ongoing.
