“The 33-year-old man was transported to hospital where he was declared dead,” said Lt. Sebastien Desaulniers.
The occupant of the second vehicle, a 58-year-old man, was also taken to hospital where he was treated for shock and minor injuries.

“One hypothesis is speed, but it’s to be confirmed,” said Desaulniers.
