On September 7, 2024, at approximately 10:05 pm, Killarney RCMP received a report of an erratic driver, involving a grey-colored pickup truck, on Highway 23 in the area of Belmont.

While officers were en route to the area, they came across a two-vehicle collision on Highway 23, located just east of Ninette at the bridge. One of the vehicles involved was a grey-colored pickup truck.

The investigation has determined that the grey-colored westbound pickup truck, being driven by a 59-year-old male from Killarney, lost control of his vehicle and struck the concrete portion of the bridge railing causing his vehicle to roll. The pickup truck then collided with an eastbound SUV containing three occupants.

The 59-year-old was pronounced deceased on scene. The three occupants of the SUV were not physically injured.

Killarney RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.
