On November 16, 2014 at 7:43 am Kamsack RCMP responded to a report of a single vehicle rollover on Highway 8, through the Keeseekoose First Nation. Upon arrival, officers located an SUV on it's passenger side in the ditch with two male occupants nearby. One of the males was pronounced deceased at the scene and the second male was transported by EMS to hospital in Regina with serious injuries.
At the time of the crash, that section of Highway 8 was and remains closed for road maintenance and a detour was set up to bypass a large amount of excavated earth on the highway. It appears that the proper detour and road closure signage was intact at the time of the crash. The investigation is ongoing with the assistance of the F Division Collision Reconstruction Unit and it is believed that alcohol was a factor in the crash. At this time, the names of the two occupants will not be released.
