The 38-year-old driver was arrested. He's being questioned. There should be a telephone appearance this afternoon via the Granby courthouse.

The SQ told Narcity Quebec that the tractor was carrying the ten people in its shovel along with some wood.

The ten passengers were allegedly suddenly ejected from the vehicle. The cause is still unknown.

In Quebec, according to the SAAQ, it's against the law to transport people in the shovel of a tractor.
