A 20-year-old woman died Wednesday morning after a single-vehicle rollover on Pimicikamak Cree Nation.

Officers received a report about the crash around 6 a.m. Investigators determined a vehicle with two female occupants was travelling northbound on Saggitawak Road at a high speed, when it lost control, rolled and collided with a tree, RCMP said in a news release Wednesday.

The driver was pronounced dead on the scene. The 16-year-old passenger was transported to the nursing station with non-life-threatening injuries. She will be flown to Winnipeg for further treatment, police said.

The investigation is ongoing.
