Woman injured in ATV crash, driver charged
Mounties believe alcohol may have been a factor in an ATV crash in northern Alberta that sent a 23-year-old woman to hospital.
Boyle/Athabasca RCMP officers and Alberta Fish and Wildlife were patrolling a remote area northwest of Lac La Biche on Saturday when they were alerted to the crash on a nearby trail and used off-highway vehicles to access it.
RCMP said the woman had been thrown from the ATV when the driver “lost control on a sandy, tree-lined trail.”
