On October 13, 2013, at 2:30pm, Steinbach RCMP were dispatched to the scene of a collision involving an all-terrain vehicle on a trail near the intersection of Road 43E and 47N in the RM of Ste. Anne.
Initial police investigation shows that three males were riding their ATVs when one of the riders, a 33-year-old male from Winnipeg, was unable to negotiate a corner, flipping his vehicle into the ditch.
Emergency services arrived on scene and transported the male to Ste. Anne Hospital. He was then taken to a Winnipeg hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries on the morning of October 15, 2013.
A RCMP traffic analyst attended the scene. Police say that alcohol does not appear to be a factor in this collision and that the rider was wearing a helmet.
