A 26-year-old Indiana man was killed in a snowmobile accident Sunday afternoon.

Eddy says the accident occurred around 3 p.m. Speed and alcohol are believed to be factors. An investigation continues.

This tragic event pushes to 16 the number of snowmobiler fatalities in Wisconsin during this snowmobiling season.
