French Olympic Skier Killed In Canada

American ski great Lindsey Vonn led tributes to French ski racer David Poisson who died after a crash in training. The 35-year-old speed specialist, who competed for France at the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics, was training in the resort of Nakiska in Canada Monday. "This is devastating," tweeted Vonn, America's most decorated skier. The French Ski Federation said "David Poisson reportedly dropped heavily after losing a ski during the shared training session with other nations that took place in Nakiska." He reportedly hit a tree after passing through the safety nets."
