Man's Tragic Death After Rural Crash

0:00RCMP, out east of Calgary, pieced together a tragic puzzle this week. A 66-year-old man from Six-Cadnation crashed his vehicle alone on Township Road 232, veered into a ditch, smacked a culvert, and ended up in a field. Instead of staying put, he wandered off and was later found dead in a nearby rural ditch from his injuries. Turns out he was driving westbound when it all went wrong. Police hit the scene after spotting his wrecked ride, but the real story unfolded through evidence they gathered on the ground. No one saw him right away since he had no cell phone to call for help. That left him out there struggling on foot, which makes this hit even harder. Rural spots like that can turn deadly quick without backup. Now investigators are digging deeper and putting out a call for witnesses. If you were around Township Road 232 and Range Road 233 from noon on April 5th to 4.55pm on April 6th, give. Back in RCMP, a ring at 403-734-3056.
