On December 15, 2023, at approximately 11:35 pm, Red River North RCMP were patrolling on Henderson Highway in the RM of St. Clements when officers saw a vehicle in the east ditch. When officers approached the vehicle, there was heavy damage, and a lone male was in the vehicle. The 36-year-old from the RM of St. Clements was pronounced deceased on scene.
Investigation has determined that the vehicle was heading southbound when it crossed over the centre line and entered the ditch, where it struck a concrete driveway approach. The male was not wearing a seatbelt.
A RCMP Forensic Collision Reconstructionist is assisting with the ongoing investigation.
