Snowmobile experts have identified two of the machines driven in a crash last month that killed a family dog on Minnesota's Pelican Lake.
After receiving help to digitally enhance photos of two of three snowmobilers, James Larson said experts told him the machines involved were a 1996 ZR-580 Arctic Cat and a 2003 F-7 Firecat.
In addition, a reward seeking information leading to the arrest of the snowmobiler who hit and killed Rosie, a 20-month-old Lab/golden retriever, now stands at $2,200.
At about 4:40 p.m. on Feb. 15, three snowmobiles on Pelican Lake drove by at a high rate of speed. The first two sleds almost hit the
60-pound dog, while the third did. None of the snowmobilers stopped, Larson said.
