One person has been killed in a two-vehicle collision north of Naicam.

The crash happened Friday, Nov. 29 at approximately 2:30 p.m.

A pickup truck travelling south on Highway 6 crossed into the lane of an air seeder heading North.

“As a result of the collision the driver of the truck, an 88-year-old male, was located deceased at the scene,” said RCMP Cpl. Rob King. “There’s going to be an autopsy done on him later on this week, but it’s a tragic situation for the community.”

The road conditions at the time were consistent with winter travel, said King, and visibility was clear.
