A 70-year-old Bridgewater man was killed after a head-on collision between a car and five-tonne truck on highway 103. RCMP say the crash happened around 4pm Monday afternoon between exits 19 and 20A near Liverpool. Police say an eastbound car crossed the centre line and collided with the truck. Cpl. Scott MacRae says they closed that section of highway for roughly five-and-a-half hours so a traffic analyst could investigate the cause of the crash. He says it could be a lengthy investigation.
A LifeFlight helicopter was called-in but was cancelled after the man died in his vehicle. MacRae says the truck driver was shaken up but didn't suffer any injuries. Highway 103 re-opened between the Liverpool and White Point Road exits around 9:30pm Monday night.
