A volunteer dive crew is in Sagkeeng First Nation to find two people who disappeared in November while attempting to ride their snowmobile across the river. Using an underwater video camera, the Hutterian Emergency Aquatic Response Team (HEART) has found what they believe is the snowmobile the young man and woman were riding on, Sagkeeng Chief Derrick Henderson said. The two snowmobilers were believed to have travelled from the south to north shore of the Winnipeg River behind Sagkeeng Arena in the late evening of Nov. 20 when they went through the ice. (Submitted by Chief Derrick Henderson)Henderson said the ice is now thick enough for the search to begin anew. He said the HEART team volunteered to help, and have been in the community, about 100 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg, since Sunday.
