A 39-year-old female is dead and a 34-year-old man is recovering from his injuries.
On Monday at 9:55 p.m., Swan River RCMP responded to a collision between an all-terrain vehicle and two pedestrians on the Wuskwi Sipihk First Nation. The two pedestrians were walking in the community on Porcupine Bay.
They were hit from behind by a 21-year-old who was driving the ATV.
Emergency services performed lifesaving measures. However, the female died of her injuries. The male was taken to the hospital with multiple non-life-threatening injuries.
The 21-year-old was arrested outside his home, not far from the collision, while standing near the ATV. It was seized and impounded. He was released from custody on conditions.
