An 18-year-old Stonewall man was killed when an SUV and a semi-trailer collided on Highway 8 on Wednesday.

Selkirk RCMP were sent to the crash site at the intersection with Highway 67, in the Rural Municipality of St. Andrews, at about 5:10 p.m.

Investigators determined the southbound semi-trailer and westbound SUV collided as the smaller vehicle crossed the intersection, RCMP said in a news release Thursday.

The driver of the SUV was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver, a 43-year-old Winnipeg man, was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
