Two men are dead after a head-on collision near the St. Andrews Airport on Highway 8 on Thursday.
RCMP said on Friday a 73-year-old man from Stonewall was driving southbound in the northbound lane of the divided highway when he hit a vehicle heading north about half a kilometre south of the intersection of Provincial Road 230 at about 11:40 a.m.
The Stonewall man and the driver of the northbound vehicle, a 66-year-old man from the Rural Municipality of Gimli, were pronounced dead at the scene.
The drivers were the only person in each of the vehicles.
Selkirk RCMP, and a forensic collision reconstructionist, are investigating.
The crash happened at almost the same time as a deadly collision on the Trans-Canada Highway north of Carberry, where 15 people were killed and 10 injured. The bus they were in collided with a semi-trailer as the vehicle crossed the Trans-Canada at Hwy. 5 shortly before noon.
