One man is dead in the aftermath of a crash on Main Street in Selkirk, Man.

Manitoba RCMP said the crash happened on the afternoon of March 18, when a vehicle with three occupants pulled out of a parking lot and collided with another vehicle.

An 86-year-old man from Whitemouth, who was a passenger in the first vehicle, was the only one injured in the incident — and didn’t appear to have life-threatening injuries, police said — but he was taken to a Winnipeg hospital, where he later died.
