At least 2 dead in avalanche in Norway fels

An avalanche in northern Norway swept six French skiers down a mountain, killing at least two of them, police said Monday.

'We have located two dead people in the avalanche, and one has been dug out alive,' Astrid Nilsen with the Troms Police District told CNN. 'We have also located three more avalanche pagers that we are working on digging out, but we are not sure that there will be anyone with them in case they lost their pagers in the avalanche.'

Skiers carry pagers to help authorities locate them in such situations.
