A teenager injured in a recent downtown ATV accident remained in hospital in stable condition on Wednesday, RCMP said.
Police described the 17-year-old male youth’s injuries as serious but non-life-threatening.
The teen was hurt when an ATV he was on struck a car at the intersection of Main Street and Third Avenue the night of Sunday, Aug. 3.
The other individual on the ATV, a 19-year-old man from Thompson, subsequently succumbed to the injuries he sustained.
Investigate
RCMP continue to investigate the accident and as of Wednesday had yet to establish whether alcohol was a factor.
Initial police investigation indicated the ATV was travelling north on Main Street when it struck a midsize sedan heading east on Third Avenue.
The driver of the sedan was treated for non-life-threatening injuries while the lone passenger was not hurt.
