On April 26, at approximately 9:55 a.m., RCMP, EHS and fire services responded to a report of a two-vehicle collision in the 2500 block of Hwy. 2. Officers learned that a southbound Chevrolet Cruze turning left onto Densmore Rd. and a southbound Land Rover Discovery collided.
The driver of the Chevrolet Cruze, a 47-year-old man from Manitoba, was pronounced deceased at the scene.
