A 56-year-old man died, and another man was arrested after a single-vehicle collision in Keeseekoowenin First Nation on Saturday afternoon.
Yellowhead RCMP responded to the collision on Highway 354 at around 2:30 p.m., where officers saw an SUV on its side, RCMP said in a Tuesday morning news release.
Officers found three men at a nearby business after a passerby brought them there, Mounties said.
One of the men, from Keeseekoowenin, had been sitting in the front passenger seat and was ejected from the vehicle during the crash, police said. He was transported to a hospital in Minnedosa, where he died, Mounties said.
The other two men in the vehicle weren’t seriously injured.
The driver of the vehicle, 33-year-old Vincent Bone from Keeseekoowenin, had a warrant out for his arrest, and police arrested him, the release said.
Bone was charged with operating a vehicle while prohibited and two counts of failing to comply with a release order in relation to the Saturday incident. He was also issued a ticket under the Highway Traffic Act for driving an unregistered vehicle, which carries a $298 fine.
Bone remains in custody, and Mounties are investigating the cause of the collision.
