Manitoba RCMP are searching for a man who has been charged with impaired driving — among other offences — in a fatal head-on collision in November of last year.

Winnipegger Kevin Maytwayashing, 48, is wanted in connection with the crash, which killed the 50-year-old female driver of another vehicle.

The incident, which took place on Highway 16 northwest of Portage la Prairie, involved a southbound SUV — which RCMP say was driven by Maytwayashing — crossing the centre line and colliding head-on with a northbound SUV.
