Man dies in ATV collision, police believe alcohol factor in crash
A 71-year old Edmonton man is dead after an ATV collision west of the town of Smith on Wednesday, May 16. Smith is 230 Kilometres northwest of Edmonton.
Slave Lake RCMP were called to the scene of the collision on West Fawcett Lake Road at about 6:30 a.m. When they arrived, they discovered the 71-year old Edmonton man, deceased.
Police believe that sometime during the night, the victim rolled his quad and sustained fatal injuries in the collision. He was not wearing a helmet and police believe that alcohol was a factor in the fatal crash.
The victim was found in the morning by an area resident. The name of the victim is not being released, pending notification of next of kin.
Slave Lake RCMP are reminding motorists and outdoor enthusiasts that this is the fourth fatality in the Slave Lake area in the last month. Staff Sergeant Roberta McKale of the Slave Lake RCMP says “RCMP are requesting safe driving on all roads and operators of off highway vehicles leading into the long weekend. It is difficult on first responders, care workers, along with family members to deal with lives being lost in driving incidents”.
