    The operator of the snowmobile fell from the machine after it came to a stop and sustained serious injuries that do not appear to be consistent with the fall from the snowmobile.

    Police have now searched a home in Port au Port in connection with injuries sustained during a snowmobile trip on February 21st. At around 4:30 that day, Bay St. George RCMP responded to the report of an injured snowmobiler on Gravel's Pond. The operator of the snowmobile fell from the machine after it came to a stop and sustained serious injuries that do not appear to be consistent with the fall from the snowmobile. Yesterday, at a home on Front Road in Port au Port West police seized a number of items from the property.

    Police are continuing to ask for the public’s assistance, looking to speak with anyone who travelled along the isthmus, an area commonly known as the gravels, in Port au Port between the hours of 3:57 p.m. to 4:05 p.m. on Friday February 21, 2025.
