Snowmobile mishap injures Kuujjuaq crown prosecutor
Kuujjuaq lawyer Louis-Christian
Boisvert broke both his legs and received a severe concussion last Thursday
night, after he was hit by a snowmobile.
Capt. Carl Pépin
of the Kativik Regional Police Force said three drivers had been racing their
snowmobiles out on the lake. One of the drivers wasnt able to stop in
time to avoid hitting Boisvert.
Pépin said snowmobile
drivers should be wary of the consequences of racing at high speeds, particularly
on the ice, in low visibility or at night.
