At approximately 2:40 p.m. on May 6, Annapolis District RCMP were called to a single vehicle collision between exit 22 and West Dalhousie road. A preliminary investigation determined the lone vehicle was travelling eastbound when it went off the road. The driver a male (77) was pronounced dead at the scene, his passenger a (55) year old female was taken to the hospital with what is believed to be non-life threatening injuries. Highway 101 was closed for approximately four hours and is now reopened. An RCMP Collision Analyst attended the scene to assist with the investigation. The collision remains under investigation. Our thoughts are with the victim’s family and friends at this difficult time.
