Search teams find body of missing snowmobiler on Northern Peninsula
Search teams found the body of a snowmobiler who went missing near the tip of Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula over the weekend.
Police say the 46-year-old man had been travelling alone, on his way home from a cabin near Eastern Lake.
Local residents had already been searching for the man when someone reported him overdue to police, around 3 p.m. Saturday.
About 45 minutes later, according to a press release from the RCMP, as officers were working to find more people to help with the search, someone found him and his snowmobile in Western Brook Pond, near Anchor Point.
The chief medical examiner's office is involved in the investigation.
