OSOYOOS – Two people were rushed to hospital by air ambulance after a SeaDoo collided with a boat on Osoyoos Lake Tuesday afternoon. RCMP say members of the same Delta, B.C. family were on both vessels at the time of the crash.
According to police, the SeaDoo was being driven by a 17-year-old girl when it hit the boat. The boat was not moving at the time of the crash. RCMP say the impact launched the SeaDoo “on top of the passenger area of the boat.”
