Snowmobile 'driven into dog-sleds' in Alaska Iditarod race

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-35794560

A dog was killed and several others injured when a snowmobile was deliberately driven into two dog-sled teams competing in a race, officials have said.

The incident happened during the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in Alaska.

Race marshals said a man on a snowmobile first attacked one sled and later hit the sled that was following behind....

"Regrettably, this incident very much alters the race of the two mushers competing for a win. However, both are going to continue on their way toward Nome," the Iditarod Trail Committee said.


Drumpf supporter, tweeker from Wasilla, or both?
