As many as 250 people were stuck in the air when a chairlift at Crabbe Mountain broke down yesterday afternoon.
Crabbe’s General Manager Jordan Cheney told the Daily Gleaner his staff train for a situation like this two or three times a season and knew what to do. He says they led the rescue efforts and had people unloaded from the 116 chairs in about two hours with the help of fire fighters from several departments.
Nobody was hurt.
A 63 year old man has been fined more than $1,100 dollars and has lost his driver’s licence after being found guilty of three charges related to reckless driving.
Court was told RCMP in bathurst spotted a commercial truck driving dangerously last May. Radar clocked it at 133kph in a 100kph zone. It was passing other vehicles and almopst collided head-on with another truck. Clovis Kelly of Brantville was found guilty yesterday and in addition to the fines, received 13 demerit points on his driver’s licence, meaning he loses it.
