A 76-year-old man was killed and a 73-year-old woman was seriously injured in a collision with a semi-truck on Highway 59, just south of Winnipeg, on Tuesday morning.
St Pierre Jolys RCMP say it happened north of the intersection with Provincial Road 311, in the RM of Hanover, around 8:50 a.m.
Police believe the man was driving south on Highway 59 when his vehicle “veered into the northbound lane,” colliding with the northbound truck.
The man was declared dead at the scene. The woman, who was the passenger, was taken to hospital by STARS air ambulance. Both were from Grande Pointe.
The driver of the semi-truck, a 47-year-old man from La Broquerie, was not injured.
Mounties are continuing to investigate.
