The Pas RCMP is investigating a fatal accident that took place along Highway 10 near midnight on April 12th.

Police got the call around 12:10 am this morning (April 12th), that an accident had happened on Highway 10, about 2 km north of Highway 60.

The investigation determined that a southbound semi-trailer, driven by a 59-year-old male from Truro, NS, crossed over into the northbound lane and collided with a northbound semi-trailer, driven by a 22-year-old male from Assiniboia, SK.

The 59-year-old male was pronounced deceased at the scene, while the 22-year-old male was taken to the hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries. The Pas RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.

Highway 10 from Highway 60, north to Highway 287 was closed but is now back open.
