A man who was out trapping in northern Manitoba was shot by a passing snowmobiler who may have mistaken him for an animal, say RCMP. The 29-year-old wounded man walked for one to two days to get back to Churchill for help, where he was treated for the gunshot and for exposure to the cold. Police are still trying to put together all of the details of what happened and exactly where, she said. That's also why it has taken a few days for the RCMP to issue a news release about the shooting. The man is from the Quebec area and had been staying in Churchill for about a month, according to RCMP.
