Skier dies

THE International Ski Federation says Canadian racer Nick Zoricic has died after crashing heavily in a World Cup skicross race in Grindelwald, Switzerland. FIS says Zoricic died at 12:35pm Swiss time as a result of "severe neurotrauma." The 29-year-old crashed directly into safety nets lining the side of the course after going wide over the final jump. Zoricic was treated on the course before being taken by helicopter to a hospital for treatment. Organizers abandoned yesterday's World Cup event.
