Another Boating Fatality in Northwestern Ontario

For the third time in less than a week, someone has been killed in a boating accident in northwestern Ontario.

The OPP say they responded to a call on Manion Lake, northwest of Atikokan, after learning that three men from Minnesota were thrown out of their boat.

A group of fishermen found the men in the water and they were taken to shore.

However Provincial Police confirm that 64-year-old Douglas Davis from North Mankato was pronounced dead at the scene.
