A 75-year-old man is dead following a single-vehicle crash on the TCH near South Brook on Friday.

The RCMP were called to the scene just after 10 a.m.

They say weather conditions were poor at the time, and a truck with several passengers went down over an embankment, coming to a rest on its side.

Three passengers were outside the truck when emergency crews arrived. Two others, including the driver, were still inside.

Both people were removed from the vehicle. CPR was performed on the man, who was a passenger, but he died at the scene.

The investigation is continuing.
