BERWICK, Maine (AP) Maine officials say a snowmobile operator whose machine crashed through ice on Valentine’s Day has died.

They say Reagan and his passenger managed to get out of the icy water of the Salmon River but that Reagan became unresponsive on the shore. Officials believe he suffered a medical event.
Wardens say Reagan’s death marks the eighth snowmobile-related fatality this season.
