Hi -
Howell et al.  Rare Birds of North America includes one record, from interior British Columbia, June 6, 1997; however not accepted by ABA because of "uncertain provenance."  Evidently the identity was not in question.

On the other hand, I checked ebird for its range.  Results are mind-boggling.  No 'New World' records that I can see.  Not even close.
