NORTHEAST SOMERSET, Maine (AP) Authorities in Maine say a man died in a snowmobiling crash in the northern part of the state on Moosehead Lake.
The crash killed 59-year-old Gregory Lemar on Sunday night. Police say the Wiscasset man was operating the snowmobile from Greenville to Rockwood just before 5 p.m. when he appeared to hit a pressure ridge of ice at a high rate of speed near Hogback Island.
Snowmobilers in the area tried to assist Lemar. He was pronounced dead at the scene, despite wearing a helmet.
