RCMP is investigating a fatal crash that occurred in Central Grove.

Yesterday, at approximately 5:30 a.m., Digby RCMP, fire and EHS, responded to a report of a single vehicle crash on Hwy. 217 in Central Grove. RCMP officers learned that a Mazda 6 travelling on the highway left the roadway and came to rest in the ditch.

The driver of the Mazda and lone occupant, a 42-year-old Scotch Village man, was pronounced deceased at the scene.

A collision reconstructionist attended the scene and the investigation is ongoing.

Hwy. 217 was closed for several hours but has since reopened.

Our thoughts are with the victim’s family at this difficult time.
