SCHROON, N.Y. (AP) — State police say 21-year-old Benjamin G. Round of Warrensburg died in a snowmobile crash late last month on Schroon Lake when his sled hit an ice ridge. Round and a passenger were thrown from the snowmobile. Round suffered a fatal head injury and the passenger was hurt. Neither man was wearing a helmet.
Police in the Town of Webb say 22-year-old Nicole Robertello of Oriskany died when her snowmobile became submerged Saturday night in open water in the Fulton Chain of Lakes. She was driving between Second and Third lakes with her boyfriend on separate sleds when they came to a body of water. Robertello's boyfriend accelerated to get across the water, but she fell through.
