Slippery Roads Blamed for Fatal Crash in New Brunswick

A 22-year-old man is dead following a two-vehicle accident in Northern New Brunswick. RCMP were called to the crash on Route 430 in Big River late Friday.

The initial investigation suggested a vehicle, with just the driver inside, hydroplaned due to heavy rain at the time and collided sideways with an oncoming vehicle.

The driver  was pronounced dead at the scene. The RCMP says the two occupants of the other vehicle were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police have identified the victim as Clayton Ross Good of Bathhurst, New Brunwick.

The investigation is continuing.
