One person is dead and another has life-threatening injuries after a two-vehicle collision yesterday, north of Dauphin.

It happened around 11:40 Saturday morning on Provincial Road 362, about two kilometres north of Dauphin.

Dauphin RCMP  determined that a pickup truck being driven by a 39-year-old male from Dauphin, was travelling westbound on Road 147N when it struck a northbound pickup truck with two inside;  a 55-year-old male driver and a 50-year-old female passenger, both from Dauphin.

The two driving in the northbound truck were taken to hospital.  The female passenger has life-threatening injuries, and the driver had non life threatening injuries.

The driver of the westbound pickup truck, who wasn’t wearing his seatbelt, was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, and later pronounced deceased.

Alcohol isn’t considered a factor in the accident.

The investigation is ongoing.
