One person has died following a crash on Highway 72 late last night (June 1st)

Beiseker RCMP responded to the incident at around 11:15pm, when a semi collided with another vehicle, causing a fire to break out on scene.

Cpl. Curtis Peters with the RCMP says they're investigating what led to the crash and had a hard time deciphering what the other vehicle was.

RCMP did confirm that the vehicle was a Chevy Silverado truck and that the lone man driving it was pronounced dead on the scene.

Next of kin have been notified and RCMP say they will not be releasing the man's name.
