Burn victim unable to be flown out due to weather
Garth Joyce survived a December 27 explosion while working on a snow machine in Chetwynd and suffered severe burns. He was moved by ground to Fort St. John and flown to Edmonton, but weather and aviation rules prevented air ambulance service from Chetwynd. BC Ambulance officials cited lack of terminal forecast and nighttime weather data as factors, with Fort St. John the only viable regional option.
