According to police the driver involved in an ATV accident that resulted in the death of a 31 year old woman from Fort McKay has been charged with impaired driving as well as several other criminal charged. 31 year old Jeremy Langdon was driving an ATV with two female passengers shortly before midnight on May 31, 2016 when the accident occurred.
