Hawker down near YUL

Anyone hear additional info on this Hawker incident near Montreal. AIN says it flew out of ATL. Since I know several Hawker people up in ATL I was just curious who this was (although the story states the a/c was from the Chicago area).

The plane, which belonged to Scott Aviation of West Chicago, Ill., had been en route from Montreal.
