CARIBOU (AP) — A man from northern Maine is facing charges he was drunk when he was involved in an ATV crash that killed a friend.

Aroostook County prosecutors say 26-year-old Timmy Soucy of St. Agatha was indicted Wednesday by a grand jury on manslaughter and other charges.

Police said Soucy was on an ATV that was towing another ATV driven by 24-year-old Robert Tardif of Frenchville on Oct. 31 last year when both machines rolled over in the roadway. Neither man was wearing a helmet.

Tardif later died in a hospital.

The Bangor Daily News says Soucy was indicted on charges of manslaughter, aggravated operating after revocation, aggravated operating under the influence and reckless conduct.
