SAINT-URBAIN-PREMIER, Que. – A pedestrian has died in a collision with a truck in a municipality south of Montreal. 

Emergency services were called at around 9 p.m. in Saint-Urbain-Premier, about 35 kilometres from downtown Montreal in Quebec’s Montérégie region. 

Quebec provincial police say the pedestrian, a man in his 30s, was in the traffic lanes when he was struck by a truck travelling southbound Saturday night.
