One person is dead following a single-vehicle rollover near Kenosee Lake on Friday morning.
Carlyle RCMP responded to a rollover approximately five kilometers south Kenosee Lake on Highway 9. A tractor-trailer unit hauling grain overturned and entered a slough.
The driver lone occupant of the vehicle, a 61-year-old man from Spy Hill, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two pickup trucks stopped at the scene to assist with the response. A separate tractor-trailer unit lost control on the roads and struck the two empty trucks.
Nobody was injured as a result of this separate collision. The road was blocked while the scene was cleared, but it has since reopened.
There was sleet and snow falling at the time of the original accident. The Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure assisted the RCMP with keeping the roads salted and plowed, and the Carlyle Fire Department assisted in directing traffic away from the scene.
A local farmer also assisted by emptying and hauling away the grain from the scene.
