On October 24, 2010, at about 11pm, Thompson RCMP were dispatched to the scene of a single vehicle rollover collision on Highway 6, about 60 km south of Thompson, Manitoba.

Investigation revealed that a 2008 Ford pick-up truck had gone off the roadway and rolled over at least once. The lone occupant of the vehicle, a 46-year-old man from Snow Lake, Manitoba, was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Initial reports indicate the roads were wet and snow covered, with reduced visibility due to heavy snow fall.

Alcohol is not considered a factor and seat belts are reported to have been in use. There were no other persons or vehicles reported to have been involved.

Police continue to investigate.
